   Antonym: असुर (asur)

• McGregor, Ronald Stuart (1993) “सुर”, in The Oxford Hindi-English Dictionary, London: Oxford University Press, page 1029

Probably from स्वर् (svar, “heaven”), or from असुर (asura) as an antonym, cf. Avestan 𐬀𐬵𐬎 (ahu, “lord; life, existence”) and 𐬀𐬵𐬎𐬭𐬀 (ahura, “lord”), Hittite 𒈗 (ḫaššū, “king”), Old Norse æsir (“gods”) and Old English ōs (“god”). Possibly ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₂ens- (“to engender, beget”).
