Etymology

From Proto-Indo-Aryan *Hrā́ṣṭi, from Proto-Indo-Iranian *Hrā́šti, from Proto-Indo-European *h₃rḗǵti, from Proto-Indo-European *h₃réǵeti (“to straighten; right”). Cognate with Latin regō (“to rule; to direct; to steer; to manage”).

Pronunciation

Verb

राष्टि • (rā́ṣṭi) third-singular indicative (class 2, type P, root राज्) (Vedic)

  1. to direct, to steer
  2. to rule, to reign, govern

Conjugation

The only attestations are 3sg. indicative राष्टि (rāṣṭi) and 3sg. injunctive राट् (rāṭ), so it is strictly speaking unknown whether the weak stem was रज्- (raj-) or राज्- (rāj-).
