Pronunciation

Etymology 1

Of uncertain origin.

The traditional derivation by Pokorny from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰer- (“to want, yearn”)[1] (whence हर्य् (hary, “to like, delight in”)),[2] is not mentioned at all by Mayrhofer, who suggests a partial relation to भृ (bhṛ, “to bear, carry”), as well as contamination by both भृ (bhṛ) and घृ (ghṛ, “to besprinkle, moisten”). He mentions that ascertaining the ultimate origins of हृ (hṛ) is difficult due to the semantic overlap described above.[3][4]

An alternative theory by de Vaan derives the root from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰer- (“to enclose”), comparing to Latin cohors (“farmyard, cohort”).[5] It is possible that the potential relations discussed above have all influenced the formation of the Sanskrit root.
