"etymology_text": "PIE word\n *péh₂wr̥\nThe noun is a learned borrowing from Late Latin alexipyreticum, alexipyreticon + English -ic (suffix meaning ‘of or pertaining to’ forming adjectives). Alexipyreticum and alexipyreticon are derived from Ancient Greek ἀλέξειν (aléxein) (the active infinitive of ἀλέξω (aléxō, “to defend, guard, protect; to help; to keep off, turn aside, ward off”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₂lek- (“to protect”)) + πυρετός (puretós, “fever; heat”) (from πῦρ (pûr, “fever; fire”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *péh₂wr̥ (“fire”)) + Latin -icum (suffix meaning ‘connected with; of or pertaining to’), -icon.\nThe adjective is derived from the noun.",
