Etymology

Unknown. Sanskrit เค•เฅเคฐเฅ€เคกเฅ ~ เค•เฅเคฐเฅ€เคณเฅ (krฤซแธ ~ krฤซแธท) was either a borrowing from a substrate, or an inherited term whose Middle Indo-Aryan descendants were influenced by substrata into like forms like this word, ๐‘€“๐‘€บ๐‘€ฎ๐‘†๐‘€ฎ๐‘€‡ (killaรฏ), ๐‘€“๐‘€บ๐‘€Ÿ๐‘†๐‘€Ÿ๐‘€‡ (kiแธแธaรฏ), and ๐‘€”๐‘‚๐‘€ฎ๐‘†๐‘€ฎ๐‘† (khฤ•ll). Given the predominance of the aspirated variants (with kh-), which normally are not morphed from unaspirated Old Indo-Aryan words, both the Prakrit and Sanskrit words are likely to be substrate borrowings, further suggested by persistent fluidity of the phonemes แธ ~ แธท ~ l.

Other attested forms like เค–เฅ‡เคฒเฅ (khel, โ€œto shakeโ€), เค•เฅ‡เคฒเฅ (kel, โ€œto shake, frolicโ€), เค•เฅเคทเฅเคตเฅ‡เคฒเฅ (kแนฃvel), and เค•เฅเคตเฅ‡เคฒเฅ (kvel) are Sanskritizations of these roots. Romani khelel appears to derive from เค•เฅเคทเฅเคตเฅ‡เคฒเฅ (kแนฃvel) (Old Indo-Aryan kแนฃ- > Romani kh-, while Old Indo-Aryan kh- > Romani x-). Elsewhere, the lack of descendants with initial ch- also suggests that the Old Indo-Aryan was aspirated.[1][2]
