| Thisetymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at theEtymology scriptorium. Particularly: “Not mentioned by Ratliff at all. Doesn't seem to bear resemblance to any other words for "apron" in the linguistic area; the closest thing might beChinese絲／丝 (sī, “silk; thread”) (issiv(“belt, sash”) connected to these terms?) The "wife" sense is almost certainly a metonymic semantic extension of the "apron" meaning.” |
