Etymology

From Proto-Indo-Iranian *stúHpas, and considered related to स्तुका (stukā, “tuft of hair”). Outside of Indo-Iranian, has been compared with Ancient Greek στυππεῖον (stuppeîon, “coarse hemp fiber”), στῡ́φω (stū́phō, “to contract, draw together”).[1][2] See also Proto-Finnic *tup'as (“mound, tuft”), which may have been borrowed from the Proto-Indo-Iranian term that gave the Sanskrit.

Pronunciation
