részeg

Etymology
From a root of uncertain origin, perhaps or  +. The sz must have been a frequentative suffix that became part of the word. Its meaning may have referred to the saman's trance. (In the 1830s, Gregor Dankovszky compared the term to Austrian and Zipser German, but the similarity must be coincidental; rauschig is from .) Similarity seems to be also coincidental with Ossetian.
