Proto-Slavic
Etymology
From Proto-Balto-Slavic *garijas, likely related to *gȍře (“grief, suffering”). An alternative theory deriving the word from Proto-Indo-European *gʷorh₂- (“heavy”), comparing to Sanskrit गरीयस् (gárīyas, “heavier”), is also appealing, though perhaps somewhat less likely than the derivation above.
