Pronunciation
editEtymology 1
editUncertain.
Per Vasmer, perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *meh₂d-, and cognate with Ancient Greek μύσος (músos, “pollution, desecration”), Ancient Greek μυσαρός (musarós, “vile, covered with shame”), Old Irish mosach (“unclean”), Low German mussig (“dirty”).
Per Preobrazhensky and Trubachyov, cognate with dialectal terms бу́сор (búsor, “junk, old stuff”), бу́сырь (búsyrʹ), бу́сорь (búsorʹ), and probably borrowed from a Turkic language with alternation between /b/ and /m/; Trubachyov in particular characterizes Vasmer's derivation as unconvincing.
An expressive connection with сор (sor, “rubbish, trash”) is also suggested.

- 1975, Братья Стругацкие, “Книга первая. Часть первая. Мусорщик”, in Град обреченный; English translation from Andrew Bromfield, transl., The Doomed City, Chicago: Chicago Review Press, 2016:
- Когда остался последний бак, Ван взял совок и метлу и принялся собирать мусор, оставшийся на асфальте.
- Kogda ostalsja poslednij bak, Van vzjal sovok i metlu i prinjalsja sobiratʹ musor, ostavšijsja na asfalʹte.
