Etymology edit
Inherited from Proto-Indo-Aryan *śr̥Hngám, from Proto-Indo-Iranian *ćr̥Hngám, from earlier *ćr̥Hnám, from Proto-Indo-European *ḱr̥h₂-nó-m, from *ḱerh₂- (“head, horn”).
Cognate with Old Church Slavonic сръна (srŭna, “roedeer”), Hittite [script needed] (surna, “horn”), Latin cornū, Old English horn (whence English horn).
