Neuter substantive of *ἔντερος (*énteros, “inside”), from Proto-Indo-European *h₁énteros, from *h₁én (whence also ἐν (en, “in”)) + *-teros (whence also -τερος (-teros, “comparative suffix”)). Cognates include Russian ятро́ (jatró), Sanskrit अन्त्र (ántra, “entrails”), Old Armenian ընդերք (ənderkʻ, “entrails”), and Latin interāneum (“entrails”), whence English entrails.
