Noun [Latin]

IPA: /ˈniː.dor/ [Classical-Latin], [ˈniːd̪ɔr] [Classical-Latin], /ˈni.dor/ (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical), [ˈniːd̪or] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical)
Etymology: From Proto-Italic *knīdōs, from Proto-Indo-European *knīdos-. It has been speculated that the word is cognate with Homeric Ancient Greek κνίση (knísē, “smell of roasting fat”) and Attic κνῖσα (knîsa), but Beekes finds this phonetically unlikely. Likewise for κνίζω (knízō, “I pound, scratch, chop”) and κνίδη (knídē, “nettle”) through an earlier dual sense of smelling and scratching.
