ἔρρω

Ancient Greek

Related to ἐρύω (erúō, “drag”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *wers- (“to drag on the ground”). Compare Hittite (/⁠warš-⁠/, “pluck, reap”), Albanian zvarrë (“drag on the ground”), Latin verro (“to drag, to sweep”), Old Norse vǫrr (“stroke”), Latvian vârsms (“heap of corn, grain”).^[1]

Beekes instead supports a derivation from Proto-Indo-European *wert- (“to turn”) via an extension *wert-ye-.

ἔρρω • (érrhō)

to go slowly, to limp
to wander
to go or come to harm, to disappear
(vulgar, usually imperative) Go to hell, perish, begone.
