Etymology

[edit]

Probably onomatopoeic, perhaps with original meaning “to popple” (cf. synonymous шуртя́ (šurtjá)). BER enlists as cognates Serbo-Croatian бри̏згати, Russian бры́згать (brýzgatʹ), etc.; thus, presumably from an earlier Proto-Slavic *brъzgati (to strew, to splatter). Could also reflect *brьzgati (to brisk) whence dialectal бръждя́ (brǎždjá, to taste tarry).
