Etymology
Noun
Middle English, "imaginary line passing through the center of a body, celestial axis," borrowed from Latin, "axletree, axle, chariot, celestial axis," going back to Indo-European *h2eḱs- "axle," whence also, with varying thematic derivation, Germanic *ahsō (whence Old English eax "axle," Old Saxon & Old High German ahsa), Old Russian/Eastern Church Slavic osĭ "axle," Bosnian-Croatian-Serbian ôs, Lithuanian ašìs, Old Prussian assis, Greek axon-, áxōn, Sanskrit ákṣaḥ, Avestan aša- "armpit"
Note: The Indo-European base *h2eḱs- also has derivatives with a suffixal l, for which see ala, axletree; compare also Welsh echel "axle, pivot," Breton ahel, which may go back to *akselā. The various thematic forms and extensions of h2eḱs- may reflect a root noun rather than an i-stem as in Latin; see E. Hamp, "Refining Indo-European Lexical Entries," Zeitschrift für vergleichende Sprachforschung, 95. Band, 1. Heft (1981), pp. 81-83. The original meaning of the noun may have been "shoulder joint"—if so, Avestan would be the only language to preserve this sense. It has been suggested that *h2eḱs- was formed by a "root extension" -s- from the verbal base *h2eǵ- "drive (cattle, etc.), set in motion (see agent).
