šaukti

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary

Lithuanian

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

Seemingly from a Proto-Indo-European *ḱewk-, though the root's further identity is unclear.

One theory takes the root to mean "to shout", in which case it is attested only in Baltic.

Alternatively, an iterative form of an unattested *šaukýti, from Proto-Indo-European *ḱowk-éye-,[1] which could trace back to *ḱewk- (white, shining) and thus be cognate with Persian سوختن (sôxtan, to burn, suffer), Sanskrit शुच् (śuc, to shine, suffer). For a similar semantic association between calling and brightness, note Latin clārus (clear, bright), from *kelh₁- (to call, shout).

Another theory derives the word from Proto-Indo-European *kew- (to howl, scream), see also Proto-Slavic *kukati (to howl, lament).
