"radius" meaning in Latin

See radius in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈra.di.us/ [Classical], [ˈräd̪iʊs̠] [Classical], /ˈra.di.us/ (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical), [ˈräːd̪ius] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical)
Etymology: Of uncertain origin. Some connect it with rādīx and rāmus. Tucker suggests Proto-Indo-European *neredʰ- (“extend forth, rise, outward”) akin to Sanskrit वर्धते (vardhate, “rise, grow”), or from Ancient Greek ἄρδις (árdis, “sharp point”). May ultimately be from Proto-Indo-European *reh₁t- (“bar, beam, stem”).
