Etymology
Sanskritization of Prakrit 𑀝𑀼𑀝𑁆𑀝𑀇 (ṭuṭṭaï, “to break”), which is itself from Sanskrit तृद् (tṛd, “to cleave, split”); see the Prakrit term for more.[1][2][3]
Johansson and Morgenstierne attempt to connect the root to Latvian trusls (“fragile”) and Proto-Slavic *truditi (“to toil”), but Mayrhofer rejects these etymologies in favour of the Prakritism.
