Proto-Germanic
Etymology
Of uncertain origin. Probably from Proto-Indo-European *h₃rewk- (“to dig, till”), via a secondary formation.[1] Other theories derive the term from Proto-Indo-European *rukn-, *rÁkn- (“weaving, web”), from Proto-Indo-European *ruk-, *rug- (“to spin, make clothes”). (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?) (This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium. Particularly: “proposed cognates under this theory?”)
