    वि वातजूतो अतसेषु तिष्ठते वर्था जुहूभिः सर्ण्या तुविष्वणिः |
    तर्षु यदग्ने वनिनो वर्षायसे कर्ष्णं त एम रुशदूर्मे अजर ||

        tṛṣu yadaghne vanino vṛṣāyase kṛṣṇaṃ ta ema ruśadūrme ajara ||

            Urged by the wind be spreads through dry wood as he lists, armed with his tongues for sickles, with a mighty roar.
            Black is thy path, Agni, changeless, with glittering waves! when like a bull thou rushest eager to the trees. (RV 1.58.4b)

From Proto-Indo-Aryan *ȷ́uźʰúHs, possibly from Proto-Indo-Iranian *ȷ́iȷ́ʰwáH 'tongue' (whence Sanskrit jihvā́ (जिह्वा) 'tongue'), from Proto-Indo-European *dn̥ǵʰwéh₂s.
