Proto-Slavic edit
Etymology edit
From Proto-Balto-Slavic *paustas, further etymology is unknown. Cognate with Old Prussian pausto (“wild”). May be connected to Ancient Greek παῦσις (paûsis, “end, rest, pause”) (whence English pause), from Proto-Indo-European *peh₂s-, but Derksen challenges this on accentual grounds.
