Inherited from Byzantine Greek ροῦχον (roûkhon), borrowed from a Slavic language; see Proto-Slavic *ruxo (garments, clothing) (whence Serbo-Croatian ruho, Polish rucho) for more.[1] Despite superficially similar phonetics and semantics, not related to Late Latin roccus (ecclesiastical vestment) (the latter whence English rochet), which instead derives from Proto-Germanic *hrukkaz (tunic, robe).[2]
