etymology

Could anybody suggest any etymological sources? For the word does not seem like Russian ([v+sh] is rather impossible to be a typical russian consonant-cluster). Maybe a loan word from some of Caucasian languages, or some of Tatar-Steppes? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.238.109.224 (talk) 13:40, 4 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
