"πέλεκυς" meaning in All languages combined

See πέλεκυς on Wiktionary

Noun [Ancient Greek]

IPA: /pé.le.kys/, /ˈpe.le.cys/, /ˈpe.le.cis/, /pé.le.kys/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈpe.le.kys/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈpe.le.cys/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈpe.le.cys/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈpe.le.cis/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Compare Sanskrit परशु (paraśú, “axe”) and Ossetian фӕрӕт (færæt, “axe”). This word often considered a Wanderwort, with similarity to Akkadian 𒁄 (pilakku, pilaqqu, “wooden handle; spindle, harp”), itself from Sumerian 𒁄 (balag, “wooden handle; spindle, harp; possibly a split piece of wood or wooden wedge”); compare Arabic فَلَقَ (falaqa, “to split apart”) and πέλεκκον (pélekkon, “axe handle”). This has led some to suggest that the Proto-Indo-European terms are ultimately borrowed through the Akkadian or a Semitic source. Furnée points to βέλεκκος (bélekkos, “kind of pulse”), suggesting a Pre-Greek origin.

Noun [Greek]

Etymology: From Ancient Greek πέλεκυς (pélekus), cognate with Sanskrit परशु (paraśú, “axe”), which would reflect Proto-Indo-European *peleḱús if reconstructed back to PIE. Beekes suggested a Pre-Greek origin. Compare also German Beil (“axe”) as well as Hungarian and Turkish balta, both meaning "axe."

  "etymology_text": "Compare Sanskrit परशु (paraśú, “axe”) and Ossetian фӕрӕт (færæt, “axe”). This word often considered a Wanderwort, with similarity to Akkadian 𒁄 (pilakku, pilaqqu, “wooden handle; spindle, harp”), itself from Sumerian 𒁄 (balag, “wooden handle; spindle, harp; possibly a split piece of wood or wooden wedge”); compare Arabic فَلَقَ (falaqa, “to split apart”) and πέλεκκον (pélekkon, “axe handle”). This has led some to suggest that the Proto-Indo-European terms are ultimately borrowed through the Akkadian or a Semitic source. Furnée points to βέλεκκος (bélekkos, “kind of pulse”), suggesting a Pre-Greek origin.",
