Etymology

Possibly an inflected from of *an-seriā-, alternatively reconstructed as *an-serwiā-. This form may itself have originated as a denominative verb from the noun *an-ser-iom. This form derived from an- + unattested derivative of Proto-Italic *serwos, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *ser-. Cognate with Latin serviō.
