@cognate

Words in different languages are cognate when they are guessed to have evolved from a common ancestor. So Sanskrit gauH गौः "cow or bull" is a cognate of English "cow" and of German "Kuh".

So you're saying that the word "cow" evolved from "gauH गौः"?

Either that, or conversely, or both from an older source, yes.
