Etymology
Inherited from Prakrit *𑀪𑀼𑀝𑁆𑀞 (*bhuṭṭha), from Sanskrit *भ्रुष्ट (*bhruṣṭa), from earlier भृष्ट (bhṛṣṭa), from Proto-Indo-Aryan *bʰr̥ṣṭás, from Proto-Indo-Iranian *bʰr̥štás, from Proto-Indo-European *bhr̥ǵ-tó-s (“roasted, fried”), from *bʰerǵ ~ *bʰreǵ (“to roast, fry”). Originally meant any fried or roasted foodstuff in Indo-Aryan languages, only near-universally changing to mean maize or corn after the colonial introduction of the plant. Cognate with Bengali ভুট্টা (bhuṭṭa), Hindi भुट्टा (bhuṭṭā), Nepali भुट्नु (bhuṭnu), Marathi भुटा (bhuṭā).
