"širь" meaning in Proto-Slavic

See širь in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

Etymology: Uncertain. Speculated to be a borrowing from Proto-Indo-Iranian *ćšáytram (“land, country”) (likely via Scythian), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *tḱey- (“to settle, to cultivate”). Alternatively, it could be a dialectal derivative of Proto-Indo-European *sḱēy- (“to shine”), cognate with Proto-Slavic *ščirъ (“sincere, honest”) and Proto-Germanic *skīriz (“sheer, pure”).
