"ἀλίβας" meaning in All languages combined

See ἀλίβας on Wiktionary

Noun [Ancient Greek]

IPA: /a.lí.baːs/, /aˈli.βas/, /aˈli.vas/, /a.lí.baːs/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /aˈli.bas/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /aˈli.βas/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /aˈli.vas/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /aˈli.vas/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: The ancient explanation as "sapless", with ἀ- (a-, without) + λιβάς (libás, “spring, fount, source”) is based on popular etymology. Kretschmer connected it with Etruscan 𐌋𐌖𐌐𐌖 (lupu, “(he) died”) and Latin Libitina, which is possible but uncertain. The deviant shape of the word, as well as forms like ὀκρίβας (okríbas), κιλλίβας (killíbas), λυκάβας (lukábas) and Κορύβαντες (Korúbantes), clearly point to a Pre-Greek origin.
