Greek: οιωνός (oionós)

Explanation debated. Because of the comparable formation in υἱωνός (huiōnós, “grandson”) from υἱός (huiós, “son”), it is probably best derived from a nominal basis. Therefore, it can be derived from Proto-Indo-European *h₂éwis (“bird”), like Latin avis (“bird”), Sanskrit वि (vi, “bird”), Avestan 𐬬𐬍𐬱 (vīš, “bird”) and also ἀετός (aetós, “eagle”). The initial ὀ- has been explained as a case of vowel assimilation since Schmidt, but this is unnecessary: one may assume an o-grade, as does Beekes, who departs from a nominative *h₂ow-i-ō(n) that was subsequently thematicized. By others, it has been combined with οἶμα (oîma, “spring, rush, swoop”), οἶστρος (oîstros, “gadfly; zeal”), οἰστός (oistós, “endurable”) and connected with the root Proto-Indo-European *h₁eys- (“to propel”), but this is doubtful. The connection with ᾠόν (ōión, “egg”) by Schmeja was defended by Peters.

Greek: ράμφος (rámfos)

Next to this word, there are ῥέμφος (rhémphos, “mouth or nose”) and ῥαμψός (rhampsós). The words ῥέμβομαι (rhémbomai, “to turn round, roam”) and ῥόμβος (rhómbos, “wheel”) are phonetically comparable and semantically similar; confront further ῥάβδος (rhábdos, “rod, wand”) and ῥομφαία (rhomphaía, “Thracian sword”). Germanic words have been compared, like Middle Low German wrimpen (“to turn up one's nose”), but these comparisons are ungrounded. The variation β/ψ rather points to a Pre-Greek origin, as does the α-vocalism. Moreover, ῥαιβός (rhaibós, “crooked”) is probably a variant, showing prenasalization.

ἴμβηρις

head

ἴμβηρις • (ímbēris)

The ending is reminiscent of λεβηρίς (lebērís, “snake skin, slough”). The word resembles some Balto-Slavic words for "eel", like Lithuanian ungurỹs and Russian у́горь (úgorʹ). However, the ending rather points to a Pre-Greek word. The relation to ἔγχελυς (énkhelus, “eel”) and Latin anguilla (“eel”) is unclear.

Hesychius' gives the definition as: ἔγχελυς (énkhelus, “eel”).


βάλαρις

βάλαρις • (bálaris)

According to Beekes, from the same Pre-Greek root of other plant names, like βαλαύστιον (balaústion, “flower of the pomegranate”), βαλλωτή (ballōtḗ, “black horehound”) and βάλλις (bállis, “unknown kind of plant”).

Traditionally connected to Proto-Indo-European *werǵʰ- (“bind, wind together”) and its descendants, like Lithuanian veržiù (“to fence in, string”), Old Norse virgill (“snare”) and Proto-Germanic *wurgijaną (“to strangle”). However, this is semantically untenable, because the meaning of this word would be "fence, enclosure". The connection with Ὀρχομενός (Orkhomenós) is commonly accepted. As there is no Indo-European etymology, it seems more probable that the word is Pre-Greek.

The word is obsolete and without etymology. It was compared with πορύναν (porúnan, “kneaded mass, cake”) and τορύνη (torúnē, “kind of grain”) by Fick, adducing Sanskrit चर्वति (carvati, “to eat, chew”) and चूर्ण (cūrṇa, “dust, powder”) as well. This would lead to the reconstruction of Proto-Indo-European *kʷeru-, which requires a pre-form *τερύνα (*terúna) for τορύνη (torúnē). However, this leaves the υ-vowel in πύρνος unexplained. According to Szemerényi, this word is syncopated from πύρινος (púrinos, “made of wheat”), but this is contestable for several reasons. Furnée connects the word with Basque apur (“crumb”); this etymology seems unreliable, but in any case, the word may well be Pre-Greek.

Unknown. Suggestions put forward are:
# From Pre-Greek, possibly akin σαύρα (saúra, “lizard”), itself of unclear origin.
# Akin to Basque sugalindila, sugelinda, sugalinda, sugalindara, sugelindara, sugelandara, subemandil, sumandil, sugemandila (“lizard”), assuming both ultimately coming from a common source.
Sound symbolism most likely had a role into the ultimate shape of the term, as it did in many languages in their terms for “lizard”. Compare also Byzantine Greek σαλαμίνθη (salamínthē, “spider”), with which it may share the possibly imitative root σαλαμ- (salam-).

The formation is similar to κόλυμβος (kólumbos), κόρυμβος (kórumbos), σήραμβος (sḗrambos) and βόμβυξ (bómbux), ὄρτυξ (órtux). The form cannot be derived from κέρας (kéras, “horn”). If the word has prenasalization, which seemes probable, it is of Pre-Greek origin. Moreover, -υκ- is a typical Pre-Greek suffix. Furnée compares κάραβος (kárabos, “kind of beetle”), κεράμβηλον (kerámbēlon, “kind of beetle”) and κηραφίς (kēraphís, “kind of locust”), suggesting a common root.

Nominal formation in σᾶ (sâ), with the exact form and origin of the root unclear. Candidates include φυ- (phu-), φυσ- (phus-), φυτ- (phut-), or φυκ- (phuk-), but none of these can be shown to have existed in Greek.
Comparanda include Old Armenian փուք (pʻukʻ, “breath, wind, fart”) (< φυκ-ι̯α (phuk-i̯a); however, φῦσα (phûsa) cannot derive from this form), Sanskrit फूत्करोति (phūtkaroti, “to puff, blow”) (< φυτ-ι̯α (phut-i̯a)), फुफुस (phuphusa, “lungs”), as well as Latin pustula (“bladder”),Classical Persian پوگان (pūgān, “uterus”),Dari پوقانه (pōqāna, “urine bladder”),Iranian Persian پپ (pop, “lung (Qaenī dialect)”), Old Church Slavonic пухати (puxati, “to blow”), Sanskrit पुष्यति (puṣyati, “to thrive, prosper”). (< φυσ- (phus-)).
Despite the existence of all this Indo-European material, the word may well have a Pre-Greek origin, based on the suffix of the derivative φῦσιγξ (phûsinx, “heel blister”), as well as the lack of solid evidence for a Proto-Indo-European *bʰus-. Regardless, the words mentioned above, as well as the Greek term, may have onomatopoeic origins.

Frisk assumed that this word and κνώδων (knṓdōn, “projecting teeth on the blade of a hunting spear”), κνώδαξ (knṓdax, “pin, pivot”) go back to a verbal noun *κνωδ- (*knōd-, “tooth, biter, gnawer”), belonging to κναίω (knaíō, “to scrape, scratch”). The glosses κάναδοι (kánadoi, “jaws”), κναδάλλεται (knadálletai, “gnaws”) belong here too. The words do not belong to Latvian kost (“to bite”). According to Beekes, they are undoubtedly Pre-Greek, since κναδ- cannot continue an Indo-European pre-form.
