Where this word comes from

From russ (“Russian person”) + land (“country, land”), literally “land of the Russians”. The first element is ultimately from Old East Slavic Русь (Rusĭ, “Rus”), borrowed from Proto-Finnic *roocci (“Swedes”), itself borrowed from Old East Norse *rōþs- (“related to rowing”), possibly from Proto-Germanic *rōþruz, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₁reh₁- (“to row”). Compare Norwegian Nynorsk Russland, Danish Rusland, Swedish Ryssland, Icelandic Rússland, Faroese Russland and German Russland (“Russia”).
