Reconstruction:Ashokan Prakrit/𑀆𑀓𑁆𑀓𑀟

Etymology
Perhaps from, but this does not explain the geminated k and its retention in descendants. The sound changes would have to assume a retroflex variant of r (a regional Indo-Aryan feature at that time) and the assimilation of t to it as well as spontaneous voicing. This is all dubious.
