Etimologia (Inglese)

From poscō (“beg, demand, request, desire”) from Proto-Italic *porskō (“to ask for; request; demand”), from Proto-Indo-European *pr̥(ḱ)sḱéti (“to keep asking; to question”), from *preḱ- (“to ask; to ask for”) + *-sḱéti (“imperfective suffix”).
Cognate with Latin prex (“prayer”), Sanskrit पृच्छति (pṛccháti), German forschen, and English frain.
