köken: Listed in one source as possibly a shift from the sazare portion of 細石 (sazareishi, “gravel, pebble”, literally “small + stone”). * /sazare/ → */zare/ → /zari/ → /d͡ʑari/ However, the first attestation of the zari form is not until 1677, while the jari form is first cited to 1619. The child sense originates as a jargon term at places such as a theatre, initially in reference to child visitors.
From Proto-Finnic *cora (compare Estonian sõra), from Proto-Finno-Permic *ćora (“grain”) (compare Erzya сюро (śuro, “grain”)), borrowing from early Proto-Balto-Slavic *śoros.
