Bengali[edit]
Etymology[edit]
Inherited from Prakrit *𑀪𑀼𑀝𑁆𑀞 (*bhuṭṭha), from Sanskrit *भ्रुष्ट (bhruṣṭa), from earlier भृष्ट (bhṛṣṭa), from Proto-Indo-Aryan *bʰr̥ṣṭás, from Proto-Indo-Iranian *bʰr̥štás, from Proto-Indo-European *bhr̥ǵ-tó-s (“roasted, fried”), from *bʰerǵ ~ *bʰreǵ (“to roast, fry”). Cognate with Gujarati ભુઠ્ઠો (bhuṭhṭho), Nepali भुट्नु (bhuṭnu), Hindi भुट्टा (bhuṭṭā), Marathi भुटा (bhuṭā). Originally meant any fried or roasted foodstuff in Indo-Aryan languages, only near-universally changing to mean maize or corn after the colonial introduction of the plant (compare the similar development in আলু (alu, “potato”)).
