From Proto-Indo-European *ser- (“to put in line, in sequence, to tie, to assemble”), referring to the assembling of the wood for a bonfire, whence also sērt (“to stack, pile grain (to dry)”) and sers (“grain to be threshed (in the barn)”) (q.v.); sārts is derived from the verb with vowel gradation (compare vērt (“to open, to close”), vārti (“gate(s)”)). Cognates include Gothic 𐍃𐌰𐍂𐍅𐌰 (sarwa, “armor, weapons”), Old High German saro (“armor”) (“assembled one”), Latin sors (“lot, fate; divinatory stick”) (genitive sortis; original meaning “sequence of little sticks”).[1]
sārts m (1st declension)
From Proto-Baltic *sartas, from Proto-Indo-European *ser-, *sor- (“red, rosy, pink”) with an extra suffix -t. Cognates include Lithuanian sar̃tas (“(light) red, light brown (of horses)”).[1]
