"azь" meaning in All languages combined

See azь on Wiktionary

Noun [Proto-Slavic]

Etymology: From Proto-Balto-Slavic *āˀźis (“goat”), cognate with Lithuanian ožỹs (“billy-goat”), Latvian āzis (“buck”). Further akin to Proto-Indo-Iranian *Haȷ́ás (“goat”). Probably from Proto-Indo-European *h₂eǵ- or *h₂eyǵ- (“goat”) (whence Ancient Greek αἴξ (aíx, “goat”)). For the semantic shift in Slavic, compare Proto-Slavic *byčьkъ (“roach”) from Proto-Slavic *bykъ (“bull”) or German Ziege (“sabrefish”) from primary meaning goat. The original meaning is preserved in the derivative *azьno (“goat skin”).
