Etymology

Certainly an Iranian borrowing, but the exact source is uncertain.

Perhaps from a descendant of Proto-Iranian *hwar- (“to take, grasp”), in the sense "to grasp in mind": compare Khotanese (hvarāka-, “grasping; robber”).[1] Further connections outside of Iranian uncertain; see Cheung for more.[2]

Compare also Southern Kurdish ھۊر (hür, “thought, memory”).
