[ˈʃuɡaːr]
Eredetsúg (“to whisper”) + -ár (noun-forming suffix). The verb súg is in origin an onomatopoeia corresponding to English rustle, so the original meaning of sugár may have been a rustling object. The several other current meanings are the result of a name transfer process. The geometry sense of radius was patterned after Latin, compare radius (“ray; staff, rod; spoke of a wheel”).
- ray, beam
- jet, spurt, stream
- radius (a line segment between any point of a circle or sphere and its center)
