==Etymology==
Some scholars believe that the name of the river is derived from the Ulghur word 'Sharyn' meaning "ash tree." There is also another interpretation that it is a derivative of the Turkic root word 'Char', which means a "precipice". Both these interpretations fit the site conditions where the terrain is precipitous, and ash trees are found.
