Inherited from Ashokan Prakrit *𑀘𑀉𑀟 (*caüḍa, “flat area; field”), possibly from Sanskrit चतुर् (catur, “four”) + Middle Indo-Aryan -𑀟- (-ḍa-), since "four" is often used to imply the total of something (compare চারদিক (cardik, literally "four directions", but used to mean "every direction") and চৌধুরী (cōudhuri)). Cognate with Punjabi ਚੌੜਾ (cauṛā), Nepali चौडा (cauḍā), Gujarati ચોડું (coḍũ), Hindi चौड़ा (cauṛā), Odia ଚଉଡ଼ା (côuṛa).
