Etymology (EN): M.E. concernen, from M.Fr. concerner, from M.L. concernere “to concern, touch, belong to,” from L. concernere “to sift, mix, as in a sieve,” from → com- “with” + cernere “to sift,” hence “perceive, comprehend,” → crisis.

Etymology (PE): Hâžidan (Dehxodâ, Steingass) “to look at, to see; to be distracted, at a loss” (on the model of E. regard, as regards, regarding), maybe ultimately from Proto-Ir. *Haxš- “to guard, supervise, to look, see;” cf. Av. aiβiiāxš- “to guard, supervise;” Mid.Pers. ‘xšyn- “to hear;” Gazi b-âš “look!;” Yaghnobi yaxš- “to be seen, visible;” Skt. áksi- “eye;” Gk. osse “both eyes;” L. oculus “eye” (Cheung 2007).
