Summary/Abstract: In this article, we discuss the origin of the words meaning ‘fear’ in the Old Church Slavonic language against the background of the Indo-European etymology. Fear is one of the universal human emotions, key to survival. Etymological research in this area is important for understanding the essence of emotion itself, for studying the history of emotions and the history of thought.
