Etymology

From Proto-Indo-Iranian *myázdʰas (“sacrificial oblation”), from Proto-Indo-European *meyh₁- + *dʰeh₁- (“to put, do”).

The first component may be related to any of मेध (médha, “offering”),[1] मयस् (máyas, “pleasure”),[2] Hittite [Term?] (/⁠miye-⁠/, “to thrive, grow”). For the second component, compare धा (dhā, “to place, set down”).[1]

Cognate with Avestan 𐬨𐬌𐬌𐬀𐬰𐬛𐬀 (miiazda), Middle Persian [script needed] (myzd /⁠mēzd⁠/), the latter whence Persian میز (miz, “table”) and Hindi मेज़ (mez, “table”).[1]
