单词 چاہنا
释义

چاہنا

Urdu

Etymology

Inherited from Sauraseni Prakrit 𑀘𑀸𑀳𑀤𑀺 (cāhadi), from Ashokan Prakrit *𑀘𑀸𑀳𑁆 (*cāh).

Chatterji tied this to Ashokan Prakrit 𑀘𑀖𑀢𑀺 (caghati, to strive towards), ultimately from Sanskrit चक्ष् (cakṣ, to see)[1]; modern scholarship has instead tied the Ashokan term to शक् (śak, to be able to).[2] The Ashokan is probably not the source of the NIA terms; see there for more.
