Most likely borrowed from Semitic, possibly from Phoenician. Compare Hebrew שַׂק, Imperial Aramaic 𐡔𐡒 (šq), Talmudic Aramaic סַקָּא, Classical Syriac ܣܩܐ, Ge'ez ሠቅ (śäḳ), Akkadian 𒆭𒊓 (/šaqqu/), Egyptian sꜣgꜣ. The word is a widely-borrowed Mediterranean Kulturwort.
Černý and Forbes suggest the word was originally Egyptian, a nominal derivative of sꜣq (“to gather or put together”) that also yielded Coptic ⲥⲟⲕ (sok, “sackcloth”) and was borrowed into Greek perhaps by way of a Semitic intermediary. However, Vycichl and Hoch reject this idea, noting that such an originally Egyptian word would be expected to yield Hebrew *סַק rather than שַׂק. Instead, they posit that the Coptic and Greek words are both borrowed from Semitic, with the Coptic word perhaps developing via Egyptian sꜣgꜣ.

Some legislators have permitted their governments to be under monarchies, others put them under oligarchies, and others under a republican form; but our legislator had no regard to any of these forms, but he ordained our government to be what, by a strained expression, may be termed a Theocracy, by ascribing the authority and the power to God.

Unknown. Beekes thinks a Pre-Greek origin is likely. Maybe related to μόρμορος (mórmoros, “fear, panic”). Generally claimed to be connected with Latin formido, although the parallel is dubious. However, see Middle Armenian մորմ (morm, “tarantula”), which possibly comes from the same substrate source.

Uncertain, but possibly from στάδιος (stádios, “firm, fixed”), from Proto-Indo-European *steh₂- (“to stand”), in reference to the fixed distance of the course. The relation with the alternative form σπάδιον (spádion), which ostensibly looks like a derivative of σπᾰ́ω (spắō, “to draw, drag”), as well as whether one is derived from the other or not, is unclear.

As for ourselves, therefore, we neither inhabit a maritime country, nor do we delight in merchandise, nor in such a mixture with other men as arises from it; but the cities we dwell in are remote from the sea, and having a fruitful country for our habitation, we take pains in cultivating that only. Our principal care of all is this, to educate our children well; and we think it to be the most necessary business of our whole life to observe the laws that have been given us, and to keep those rules of piety that have been delivered down to us. (tr. Whiston et al., 1895)

Septuagint (Rahlfs), 4 Maccabees 6:22.

Neumann compares this word with Hittite [script needed] (išḫuwai-, “to throw, scatter, pour”), while Furnée with κύπελλον (kúpellon, “whatever dough and bread is left over on the table”). If the last theory is correct, then the word could be of Pre-Greek origin. However, while κύπελλον (kúpellon) provides only superficial similarities (note the differences in the consonants), a non-Hittite Anatolian form *šḫuwai provides a perfect match. The immediate Anatolian source cannot be identified more precisely, since neither the phonology nor the morphology is specific enough. Possible candidates are Luwian, Lydian or Palaic.

Greek: σελίδα (selída)

Clearly related to σέλμα (sélma, “deck of a ship”). These words have been compared to Old English selma and syll, and to German Schwelle (“threshold”), but phonetically this etymology is unconvincing. If the gloss cited by Hesychius, ἔλματα (élmata, “planking”), is cognate, then the σελμα-ἔλμα alternation would point to a Pre-Greek origin.

Alternatively, Beekes suggests a Pre-Greek origin.
