Etymology
(This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.)
Cognate with Latin secūris (“axe”) and Ancient Greek σάγαρις (ságaris, “single-edged battle axe used by Scythians”). Probably not related to Akkadian 𒅆𒆕 (/šukurru/, “metal wedge, spear, axe”) which can have various other relations like to the frequent root related to locking, blocking (Arabic شَجَرَ (šajara, “to tie up, to keep off”) and loanwords سُكَّار (sukkār) and سَاجُور (sājūr)).
