Etymology
From Sanskrit उत्साह (utsāha, “enthusiasm, zeal; resolution, firmness, strong will; strength, power, energy, effort, strenuous and continuous exertion; etc”); perhaps via Old Khmer otsā, *utsāha (“to work hard; to strive; to exert (oneself, every effort, etc)”). Cognate with Thai อุตสาหะ (ùt-sǎa-hà), Modern Khmer ឧស្សាហៈ (ʼuhsaahaʼ).
