"etymology_text": "Originally the past participle *ērtas of a Proto-Baltic verb *ērti (“to loosen; to crumble”) (compare Lithuanian iterative érdėti (“to crumble”)), from Proto-Indo-European *er- (“loose, light, rare, sparse; to fail, to crumble, to disintegrate”) (whence also Latvian irt (“to crumble”), q.v.). The meaning changed from “crumbling; loose” to “loose(ly fit),” “unencumbering,” “comfortable.” Cognates include Lithuanian er̃tas (“wide, comfortable”).",
