Latvian

Etymology

This word is the reflex of two different Proto-Indo-European forms: *wer-d-, *wr-ed- (to bend, to sway) and *werdʰ-, *wr-edʰ-, *h₃erdʰ- (to grow; high), both from the stem *wer- (to bend, to turn). Both forms yielded Proto-Baltic *red-, *rad-, from which *rad-ti > *rasti > rast. The present tense form was derived with an extra n: *randuo > *ruodu > rodu; cf. dialectal variants ronu, romu. From the meaning “to bend, to sway” came “to raise, to obtain (by bending down to get it)” > “to obtain, to get, to find.” From the meaning “to grow” came not only the meanings of the Lithuanian reflexive form, but also those of Latvian related forms like raža (harvest), rasma (fecundity), radīt (to create), radi (relatives) and the 18th-century adjective rastīgs (fertile, successful). This semantic diversity also explains the divergent meanings of the derived prefixed verbs (atrast (to find; to lose a habit, a skill), ierast parast, pierast (to get used to), etc.). Cognates include Lithuanian ràsti (to find, to obain by searching; to notice; to determine, to establish; to happen, to be), reflexive ràstis (to grow quickly, strongly; to give birth; to rise, to get up; to become; to happen; to come, to arrive; to get somewhere); from *werd- (to bend, to sway), also Gothic 𐍅𐍂𐌰𐍄𐍉 (wratō, to go, to travel), Icelandic rata (to travel, to find one's way), Middle High German razzeln (to turn); from *werdʰ (to grow), Old Church Slavonic расти (rasti, to grow), Russian расти́ (rastí), Polish róść, Sanskrit वर्धति (várdhati), वृधति (vr̥dháti, to grow, to increase), Ancient Greek ὀρθός (orthós, straight, upright) (and perhaps also, from a possible variant form *Herdʰ, *Hredʰ-, Latin arduus (lofty, high), arbor (tree)).
