Proto-Slavic

Etymology

Denominative verb from *xorna (“food, fodder”).

Per Derksen, possibly a borrowing from Iranian (compare Avestan 𐬓𐬀𐬭𐬆𐬥𐬀 (xᵛar^əna, “food”).
Per Vasmer, related to Latin servō (“to save”) (infinitive servāre), Avestan 𐬵𐬀𐬭𐬀𐬌𐬙𐬉 (haraitē, “to beware, to take care”), 𐬵𐬀𐬎𐬭𐬎𐬎𐬀𐬌𐬙𐬌 (ha^uruuaⁱti, “to guard”); the connection with Avestan 𐬓𐬀𐬭𐬆𐬥𐬀 (xᵛar^əna, “food”) is "difficult".
