انداختن

From Middle Persian (hndʾhtn' /⁠handāxtan⁠/, “to plan, allot, reckon, judge”), from *ham- (“together, syn-”) +‎ *tač- (“to reach for, attain”), the latter from Proto-Indo-European *tek- (“to stretch the hand, receive, reach”) and cognate with شاه (šâh, “king, shah”), as well as Old English þiċġan (“to receive, accept”) and Lithuanian tèkti (“to be granted”). See also اندازه (andâze, “size, scale”).
