mušti
See also: musti
Lithuanian
Etymology
Within Balto-Slavic a connection can be drawn with Latvian mustavas (“warping beam”) (compare muštùvas); Slovene mašiti (“fill, clog up”) and perhaps Bulgarian му́ша (múša, “stab, poke”) < *moux-.[1] These forms point to (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Proto-Indo-European -s- and a root of *mews- (“poke, beat”); compare Sanskrit मुष्णाति (muṣṇāti, “steal, break”).
According to Beekes[2], the root is *h₂muḱ-; compare Ancient Greek ἀμύσσω (amússō, “scratch, tear”), Latin mūcrō (“sharp point”). However, neither the semantic nor formal arguments make a convincing case for the Lithuanian term to belong here.
