• Vasmer, Max (1964–1973) “струяться”, in Oleg Trubachyov, transl., Этимологический словарь русского языка [Etymological Dictionary of the Russian Language] (in Russian), Moscow: Progress
• Todorov, T. A., Racheva, M., editors (2010), “струя”, in Български етимологичен речник [Bulgarian Etymological Dictionary] (in Bulgarian), volume 7 (слòво – теря̀свам), Sofia: Prof. Marin Drinov Pubg. House, →ISBN, page 508

Attested only indirectly though its derivative *ostrujiti.^[1] Either from the same origin as *strujiti (“to gush out”) or from proto-Indo-European *strew- (“to strew, to construct”). In the later case, the term would be a cognate with Proto-Germanic *strawjaną (“to strew”) and indirectly with Latin struō (“to compose”).
