Etymology
Etymology tree
From Proto-Indo-Aryan *sar-, from Proto-Indo-Iranian *sar-, from a merger of Proto-Indo-European *sel- (“to spring, jump”) and *ser- (“to flow”) (though Mayrhofer is skeptical that *ser- was preserved within Indic in any form).[1][2]
Not to be confused with स्रु (sru, “to flow, leak”), which is instead from Proto-Indo-European *srew- (“to flow, stream”).
