Etymology
This item formally agrees with Sanskrit स्तिया॑ (stíyā, “stagnant water”), but the semantics are quite different. An intermediate meaning could be sought in Sanskrit स्त्यान (styāna, “curdled; thick”). Other possible cognates are Proto-Germanic *stainaz (“stone”) and Proto-Slavic *stěna (“rock; lump”).
