From Proto-Indo-European *ser- (“to flow, run”), based either on sulfur's sharp taste, or on a development like “liquid” > “substance that flows easily” > “sulfur”. Cognates include Russian се́ра (séra), Latin serum (“whey”).
Some specialists believe, however, that sērs is a 13th-century borrowing from Old East Slavic (сѣр (sěr), сѣра (sěra)). At any rate, even if the word is not borrowed, its shape may have been influenced by Old East Slavic or Russian.

The semantic evolution was probably: “to skin” > “skin, fur” > “fabric”. Cognates include Lithuanian drãpana (“clothes, costume”) (dialectal also “handkerchief”, “piece of cloth”), Sanskrit द्रापिः (drāpíḥ, “coat, attire”).

Cognates include Lithuanian sraũtas (“stream, current, flow”) (dialectal straũtas), Sanskrit स्रोत (srótas-, “flow, river”); for the old verb straut, compare also Lithuanian iterative verb sravė́ti (“to flow slowly”), Sanskrit स्रवति (srávati, “to flow”), Ancient Greek ῥέω (rhéō, “to flow”).

klēts (singular vocative)
klētis (plural vocative)

From the same stem as the verb celt (“to raise”); the actual form underwent metathesis (*keltis > *klētis > klēts). The original meaning was probably “raised, elevated building.” Cognates include Lithuanian klė́tis, Old Prussian clenan, Old Church Slavonic клѣть (klětĭ), Russian клеть (kletʹ), Belarusian клець (kljecʹ), Ukrainian кліть (klitʹ), Bulgarian клет (klet), Czech klec, Polish kleć. (Some researchers believe that the Slavic terms result from an early borrowing from Baltic.)

kāsī (locative singular)
kāšos (locative plural)
kāsi (singular vocative)
kāši (plural vocative)

The origin of this word is not clear. It may stem from Proto-Indo-European *ḱāk-, *ḱak- (“branch, pole”), via metathesis (from *kāḱ- to Proto-Baltic *kāš- to Latvian kāsis), with the original meaning being “bent branch.” Cognates would then include Lithuanian dialectal kóšis, and maybe also Sanskrit काशिः (kāśiḥ, “hollow of the hand”), if indeed its older meaning was “meander,” “bent, crooked one.”
Proto-Indo-European *ḱāk-, *ḱak- without metathesis would have yielded the dialectal Latvian term saķis (“bifurcated ending”), Lithuanian šakà (“branch”), and Sanskrit शाखा (śākhā, “branch”).

Borrowed from Livonian kamm, plural kämm, itself a borrowing from a Germanic language (compare German Kamm), from Proto-Germanic *kambaz, from Proto-Indo-European *ǵómbʰos (“tooth”) (whence also Latvian zobs (“tooth”)), from *ǵembʰ- (“to bite, chew”). The original meaning was probably “toothed object.” This term is first attested (as kammes, kemmes, the e form coming from the original Germanic plural, and also from the influence of simultaneously borrowed ķemmēt (“to comb”); compare German kämmen) in the 17th century, replacing the previous more general word suka (nowadays only “brush”).

Cognates include Lithuanian kẽkšis, kẽkšė (“hook; stilt; pole”). There are similar words in neighboring non-Baltic languages: Livonian boathook, dialectal Estonian keks, käks, köks (“hook; harpoon”), Finnish keksi (“hook”), Norwegian kjeks, Swedish käx (“small boathook”), which led many researchers to conclude that the Latvian term was borrowed. But it is also possible that the other languages borrowed from Baltic; in which case ķeksis might continue Proto-Indo-European *kek- (“to curve, bend”) with an additional -s (compare Sanskrit कक्षा (kákṣā, “armpit, nook, corner”)); compare Latvian dialectal terms ḳekains (“hooked”), ḳeks, ḳeḳa (“crutches”), ḳeḳis (“person with crooked teeth”).
