Proto-Slavic

Etymology

Continues Proto-Balto-Slavic *badas[1] from Proto-Indo-European *bʰedʰh₂- (“to prick, to dig”). Cognate with Lithuanian bãdas (“hunger, famine”), Latvian bads (“hunger, famine”) and akin to Old Prussian boadis (“sting”) (i-stem). For the sense of hunger, starvation in East Baltic, compare the dialectal Proto-Slavic *dьrča (“hunger, stomach growling”) from Proto-Slavic *dьrkati (“to pluck, to tug”).
