Proto-Slavic

Etymology

Most likely from Proto-Slavic *drapъ (“scratch, trail”)/Proto-Slavic *drabъ (“spike; grazed cloth, rag”) + *-skati, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *derH- (“to tear”). Possibly, also influenced by Proto-Indo-European *dʰreb- (“to beat, to grind”), in view of the derivative Russian дразга (drazga, “freckle”). Closely related to Lithuanian draskýti (“to tear apart”).

Trubachev also considers a direct derivation from Proto-Slavic *derti (“to tear”), as in the inchoative Ancient Greek ἀποδιδράσκω (apodidráskō, “to flee, to retreat”).
