Etymology
Distorted by folk etymology – descendants distorted it further; there are many regional variants not of all of which are listed in the descendant table below. Explanations:
- by surface *syrъ + *-ovъ + *-atъ + *-ka
- from Proto-Indo-European *ser- (“related to binding”) and thus cognate to Latin serum (“whey”) and Ancient Greek ὁρός (horós, “whey”)
- *syrъ + *voda
- borrowed from a reflex of Turkic *yograt, variant of *yogurt, in Yakut суорат (suorat), suffixed with + *-ka after borrowing.
