Proto-Slavic
Etymology
South Slavic meaning probably reflects the iterative-causative of *briti (“to cut”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *bʰreyH- (“to notch”). Equivalent to *brojь (“count”) + *-iti.
Per Grynčenko (qouted by Trubačev, ESSJa), secondary meaning in West and East Slavic may have been back-formed or at least influenced by unrelated *obrojiti (“to flock, to get into commotion”) < *ob- + *rojiti (“to flow, to traverse”).
