Proto-Slavic

Etymology

From *stryba (from *stryti + *-ba) +‎ *-ati.

Original meaning was “to flow, run”. The modern meanings of Ukrainian стрибати (strybaty, “to jump”) is late and can be explained by figurative meaning “to flow quickly over a stone; run chaotically” which suggests a shift in meaning from horizontal to vertical movement. Cf. also Latvian diet (“to run, dance, jump”), Sanskrit प्रवते (pravate, “to undulate, jump”).
