Etymology
Ahrós, the Fáknir name for the river, was loaned from Old Aktari ecarow sa' /*ɛxɑrɔħ sɑʔ/, meaning "the praying river". This is reflected in the Aktari language's modern stage, the Í language, which calls it irus.
The Saavdis name Akralst was loaned from Fáknir around the year 1550 by As settlers. At this time, Fáknir merchants and colonists commonly called the river Ahrós te "Akralst-water" (distinguished from Ahrós kitá "Akralst-land", a distinction also featured on Fáknir maps of southern Boroso, which were in high demand throughout the Fals world). As and Farresset settlers adopted the phrase in its entirety, which would explain the final -t.
The Asakan name Saga comes from Sagadegaun, a kingdom that flourished along the banks of the Akralst. The name ultimately comes from the Kagassian word sagat, meaning "tree". Saga is also a current duchy of Yakormonyo, consisting of three prefectures that lie along the upper part of the river.
The Yaharan name Eyähärä is derived from the words eyä, meaning "air" or, possibly, in Zikish, "flow", and härä, the Zikish form of the word xärä, meaning "river". The name appears in records of trading north as early as 1032, though the name appears older. While it is possible the name was originally Zikish, it is far more likely that the name is a later construction formed in the Zikish fashion, especially given there is little evidence of Zikish penetration as far north as the Akralst. Some etymologists[who?] argue that the name is, in and of itself, evidence of Zikish settlement of the area.
