Etymology 1
editFrom Proto-Indo-European *kseros (“dry”). Cognates include Ancient Greek ξηρός (xērós), Old High German serawēn, Old Armenian չոր (čʻor), Middle Armenian չիր (čʻir) and perhaps Sanskrit क्षार (kṣārá, “sharp, acrid, pungent”). Possibly the inchoative of an unattested verb *serō, which also produced the adjective serēnus.[1]
