Etimoloxía (Inglés)

From Aramaic גִּישְׁרָא / גִּשְׁרָא (gišrā) / ܓܫܪܐ (gešrā), with Hebrew גֶּשֶׁר (géšer) from Akkadian 𒄀𒅖𒊒 (gišru, “bridge”). Note the meaning “timber, beam” in Syriac – originally the Arabic word meant a wooden bridge in distinction from a stone bridge قَنْطَرَة (qanṭara). The word has a derivation in Akkadian from 𒄑𒃡 (GIŠ.ÙR), 𒄑𒃡𒋗 (GIŠ.ŠU.ÙR /⁠gušūru, gašūru⁠/, “tree-trunk; felled log, timber; beams”), itself considered a Sumerian loanword.
