Etymology

Of uncertain origin.

Most likely from Proto-Indo-European *skewp- (“to touch, probe”), and thus cognate with Russian щу́пать (ščúpatʹ, “to feel, grope”).

Alternatively, a Sanskritization of a dialectal form of स्पृश् (spṛś, “to touch, stroke”).

The family of Germanic words descended from Proto-Indo-European *skewbʰ- (“to push, drive”) to which German schieben (“to shove”) belongs to may be related; however, these correspond better to Sanskrit words with a 'bh' rather than a 'p' consonant.
