"ध्वज" meaning in Sanskrit

See ध्वज in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /dʱʋɐ.d͡ʑɐ́/ [Vedic], /d̪ʱʋɐ.d͡ʑɐ/ [Classical-Sanskrit]
Etymology: From the root ध्वज् (dhvaj, “(of a banner) to move and wave around”), of uncertain origin. Traditionally derived from Proto-Indo-European *dʰweg- (“cloth”), and compared with Proto-Germanic *dōkaz (“cloth, rag”). However, Kroonen and Mayrhofer find this derivation phonetically unconvincing, with Mayrhofer preferring to derive the Sanskrit from a homophonous root *dʰweg-, albeit with a different root meaning "to move back and forth", which he takes as a verbal extension related to धव् (dhav, “to run, flow”).

However, Kroonen and Mayrhofer find this derivation phonetically unconvincing, with Mayrhofer preferring to derive the Sanskrit from a homophonous root *dʰweg-, albeit with a different root meaning \"to move back and forth\", which he takes as a verbal extension related to धव् (dhav, “to run, flow”).",
