Adverb [Lithuanian]

IPA: [ɐŋks̪ˈt̪ʲɪ̂] Forms: ankstì [canonical], anksčiaũ [comparative], anksčiáusiai [superlative]
Etymology: Cognate with Old Prussian angstainai (“in the morning”); further origin outside of Baltic unclear. Various theories deriving the word from a metathesis of Proto-Indo-European *nókʷts (“night”) and comparing Proto-Germanic *unhtwǭ (“last part of the night”) and Ancient Greek ἀκτῑ́ς (aktī́s, “ray, beam”) are phonetically bold and semantically doubtful. Other derivations connecting the word to Sanskrit अञ्जसा (áñjasā, “straight on, quickly”) (for which see अञ्जस् (añjas, “speed, velocity”)) are dubious, due to the Sanskrit term seeming to derive from Proto-Indo-European *h₃engʷ- (“to smear, anoint”), while links to Proto-Slavic *nãglъ (“sudden, hasty”) and Gothic 𐌰𐌽𐌰𐌺𐍃 (anaks, “suddenly”) are questionable.
