  "etymology_text": "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.”\nProto-Indo-European *ḱāk-, *ḱak- without metathesis would have yielded the dialectal Latvian term saķis (“bifurcated ending”), Lithuanian šakà (“branch”), and Sanskrit शाखा (śākhā, “branch”).",

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.”\nProto-Indo-European *ḱāk-, *ḱak- without metathesis would have yielded the dialectal Latvian term saķis (“bifurcated ending”), Lithuanian šakà (“branch”), and Sanskrit शाखा (śākhā, “branch”).",
