Where this word comes from

Perhaps from Proto-Italic *erzāō, from Proto-Indo-European *h₁ers-eh₂ye-ti, from Proto-Indo-European *h₁ers-. De Vaan suggests that the denominative was likely formed to a base noun *h₁ers-o/h₂- (“erring, error”). It is perhaps possible that the same denominative formation is continued by Old Armenian եռամ (eṙam, “to boil, bubble”). Nussbaum alternatively suggests that it may have emerged as a denominative to an s-present from *h₁r̥sḱéti (“to go to, to arrive”).
