Etymology
From Proto-Indo-Iranian *śćad-, related to Prasuni vëzëlë (“goatskin boot, shoe”) (< *upascāda), with further origin uncertain.[1] Perhaps from a Proto-Indo-European *sḱed- (“to cover”), whence Old English hæteru (“clothing”).[2] Whether this root is related to Proto-Indo-European *(s)ḱeh₃- (“darkness”) (whence compare English shade and shadow), if said root exists, is unclear.
