Sanskrit/Hindi linkage

Please have a look at the link below. https://www.hindi2dictionary.com/%E0%A4%A4%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%B0%E0%A4%B8%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%A4-meaning-hindi.html Hindi/Sanskrit also has a similar sounding word and similar meaning. So the assertion in the entry that it is only available in latin and germanic may not be true. Any comments? HarshEtymo (talk) 18:49, 20 February 2023 (UTC)

@HarshEtymo The Sanskrit त्रस्त (trasta) which properly means "afraid" is the participle of the verb त्रसति (trasati, “to tremble, be afraid of”), which comes from an unrelated root. Catonif (talk) 12:37, 13 June 2023 (UTC)
