Etymology 2

From Proto-Iranian *dr̥ti- (manure, feces), from Proto-Indo-European *dʰṛ-to-, from Proto-Indo-European *dʰreyd- (to have diarrhea), whence also English dirt, Old Norse dríta (to defecate), and Russian дриста́ть (dristátʹ, to shart). Possibly related to Proto-Indo-European *dʰerh₃- (to spring, leap) (whence perhaps Sanskrit धारा (dhārā, current, torrent)).[1]
