See σκύλος in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

IPA: /ský.los/, /ˈscy.los/, /ˈsci.los/, /ský.los/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈsky.los/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈscy.los/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈscy.los/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈsci.los/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: From Proto-Indo-European *(s)kewH- (“to cover”). Cognates include Sanskrit स्कुनाति (skunā́ti, “to cover”) and Old English scēo (“sky”) and scuwa (“shade, darkness, protection”). Related to σκῦτος (skûtos, “hide, leather”) and ἐπισκύνιον (episkúnion, “skin over the brows”). Alternatively, Beekes suggests derivation from σκύλλω (skúllō, “I lacerate, skin”).
