Etymology
The origin is uncertain.[1][2] Perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *ǵogʰ- (“stake, branch, bush”) and cognate with Dutch keg (“wedge”), Old High German kegil (“cone, peg, wedge, nail”) (German Kegel), Lithuanian žãgaras (“dry twig”), žãgrė (“plowshare”).[3][4][5] A by-form *ծայգ (*cayg) is reflected in post-classical ծայգեմ (caygem) and dialectal ծեգել (cegel), ծեգ (ceg).
