Etymology
Uncertain. De Vaan suggests that it is probably ultimately of onomatopoeic origin. Kroonen connects the term with Proto-Germanic *fīsaną (“to blow; to fart”), proposing a common root *(s)peys- (“to blow, breathe”). Kroonen suggests that the Latin term may have derived from a Proto-Indo-European pre-form *(s)péys-eh₂-yeti, though De Vaan does not make such an assertion. De Vaan notes that the proposed Germanic differ in meaning and he argues that they may constitute independent formations within Proto-Germanic. De Vaan likewise rejects Proto-Slavic *pīskàti and Lithuanian pyškė́ti as possible cognates, arguing that these terms differ significantly in meaning and that the terms may have been formed within Balto-Slavic. See: Proto-Germanic '
*fīsaną'.
