Connected to ἄχερδος (ákherdos, “wild pear”). According to Beekes, a Pre-Greek origin is exposed by the alternation ἀ-χερδ- beside ἀ-χραδ-. While the alternation can also be understood in Indo-European terms, the word for “pear” must be suspect of loanword origin due to the Caucasian heimat of the plant, and indeed it appears reflected in, for instance, Ossetian кӕрдо (kærdo, “pear”), and thence even as far as Kipchak كرتما (kärtmä, “pear”).

For this word, DELG assumes *φληϝ-ο- (*phlēw-o-), beside *φλωϝ-ο- (*phlōw-o-) for φλόος (phlóos, “rind, skin, slough”). Often derived from the verb φλέω (phléō, “to overflow, flood”), but Chantraine adds the word may just as well be a loan; this would agree with Beekes's suggestion of a Pre-Greek origin of the noun.

Strömberg compares κόρνος (kórnos, “butcher's broom”) and σκόρνος (skórnos, “myrtle”). It seems possible that ἀκορνός (akornós, “grasshopper”) derives from this word, like ἀκανθίας (akanthías, “grasshopper”) beside ἄκανθα (ákantha, “thorn, thistle”). The prothetic vowel, the variations and the -ρν- cluster point to a Pre-Greek origin, according to Beekes.

soldier thistle (Picnomon acarna, syn. Cirsium acarna)

In view of the characterization by Epicharmus as μεγαλοχάσμων (megalokhásmōn, “wide-gaping”), connection with χαίνω (khaínō, “to yawn, gape”) with expressive gemination has been proposed. Thompson considers a foreign derivation from Egyptian [script needed] (chnā, “unknown kind of fish”), while Furnée suggests a Pre-Greek origin comparing this word with χέννιον (khénnion, “kind of fish”), showing alternation α/ε.

Unexplained. Traditionally derived from φύω (phúō, “to grow”), with a prefix ὑ- (hu-), following the explanation in Hesychius, who described it as “what grows on firs”. But, since a full grade φευ- (pheu-) does not definitively occur in Greek, such a derivation is implausible. Nor is this word related to σῦφαρ (sûphar, “old, wrinkled skin”). Likely Pre-Greek, given its meaning and the ending -ᾰρ (-ăr).

Two possible etymologies have been given. Traditionally it was interpreted as a derivative of ἀλφάνω (alphánō, “to produce, to earn”), therefore meaning “industrious”. After the 19th century another interpretation has been given, translating it as “bread eater”, and deriving it from ἄλφι (álphi, “flour”), with the addition of a suffix that means “to eat”.

Recalling Messenian τράγος (trágos, “wild fig-tree”) and Latin caprificus (“wild fig-tree”), Prellwitz compared an old word for "billy-goat", which is also found in ἔριφος (ériphos, “kid, young goat”). According to Chantraine and Schwyzer, however, the word is Pre-Greek. According to Blažek, it is Hurrian 𒄑𒂊𒊑𒅎𒁉 (^(GIŠ)e-ri-im-bi /erimbi/), 𒄑𒂊𒊑𒁉 (^(GIŠ)e-ri-bi /eribi/, “cedar”), suffixed from Akkadian 𒄑𒂞 (^(GIŠ)ERIN /erēnu, erinnu/, “cedar”), from Sumerian 𒄑𒂞 (^(GIŠ)ERIN /eren/).

Kalén assumes earlier *θή-θυον (*thḗ-thuon) and connects the word with θῆσθαι (thêsthai) (which is from the root of θάω (tháō, “to suck”)) and with θύλακος (thúlakos, “sack”). This explanation is nonsensical and typical of older Greek etymologies. According to Beekes, it is more probably a Pre-Greek word, given the variation υ/ε.
