Proto-Slavic
Etymology
Perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *gwesd- (“dense, compact, clumped”), via Proto-Balto-Slavic *gwasdís, *gwasdwī́ˀ (whence Old Church Slavonic гвоздвьи (gvozdvĭi)). Possibly cognate with Armenian կոշտ (košt, “hard, tough, crude”) and akin to o-stem Proto-Celtic *bozdos[1] (whence Middle Irish bot (“tail, penis”), Welsh both (“hub, nave”)).
