## Russian
### Etymology

Inherited from Old East Slavic изъба, истъба (izŭba, istŭba), from Proto-Slavic *jьstъba, which may be related to Proto-Germanic *stubō (“room, sitting room, oven”) (whence ultimately English stove) or to French étuve (“heated room, bathroom”), itself from Latin *extupāre. The phonetic transition /стъб/→/зб/ is associated with the simplification of the combination /стъб/→/сб/ after the fall of the reduced vowels and voicing /сб/→/зб/, compare transition /сд/→/зд/ in здоро́вый (zdoróvyj) from съдоро́въ (sŭdoróvŭ).
