Etimologia (Inglese)

Ereditato da inglese medio: rewe

Ereditato da inglese antico: hrēow

Affine tedesco: reuen

Affine olandese: berouwen

Affine russo: сокруша́ться

Affine russo: круши́ть

Ereditato da inglese medio: rue

In summary

From Middle English rewe, reowe, from Old English hrēow (“sorrow, regret, penitence, repentance, penance”), from Proto-West Germanic *hreuwu (“pain, sadness, regret, repentance”). Cognates include German reuen (“to regret, to repent”) and Dutch berouwen (“to regret, to repent”).
Probably ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *krows-. If so, note the same sense evolution with in this case cognate Russian круши́ть (krušítʹ, “to destroy, to shatter”), Russian сокруша́ться (sokrušátʹsja, “to be distressed, to grieve (for, over)”). Also compare Czech truchlit from Proto-Slavic *truxlъ.
