According to De Vaan, from Proto-Italic *serzā, from Proto-Indo-European *sers-eh₂, from *sers- (to cut off), from which he also notes Schrijver's derivation of sarrio from a zero-grade of such a root.[1]

Compare, however, Proto-Celtic *serrā (sickle, scythe; billhook), with a different etymology.
