See ἰσχύς on Wiktionary

Noun [Ancient Greek]

IPA: /is.kʰy̌ːs/, /isˈçys/, /isˈçis/, /is.kʰy̌ːs/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /isˈkʰys/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /isˈçys/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /isˈçys/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /isˈçis/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Disputed. Dialectal variants point to Proto-Hellenic *wiskʰū́s, but since the Mycenaean Greek cognate 𐀂𐀱𐀓𐀺𐀈𐀵 (i-su-ku-wo-do-to) lacks the initial /w/, it may have arisen by analogy with *ϝῑ́ς (*wī́s, “power”) (> ἴς (ís)). Early hypotheses assume a relation to Sanskrit विषहते (viṣahate, “to hold fast, endure, withstand, conquer”), from Proto-Indo-European *wi- + *seǵʰ- (“to hold, have power”) (see ἔχω (ékhō)), or alternatively from the same root via a reduplicated u-stem *si-sǵʰ-ús (cf. ἴσχω (ískhō)). Unconvinced by these etymologies, Beekes suggests Pre-Greek substrate origin. According to Gamkrelidze & Ivanov, a Kartvelian borrowing, compare Proto-Georgian-Zan *s₁xu- (“fat, stout”).
