desctree

→ Ottoman Turkish: اوكسه (ökse)
Turkish: ökse
→ Armenian: էօքսէ (ēōkʻsē)
→ Azerbaijani: öksə

An old cultural word, identical with Latin viscum (“mistletoe”), thus implying a pre-form *ϝιξ(ο-) (*wix(o-)). It has been compared with Proto-Slavic *višьňa (“sour cherry”) and Proto-Germanic *wīhsilō (“sour cherry”). Chantraine considers a common derivation from Proto-Indo-European *weyḱs-, but, according to Beekes, given its structure and limited distribution it is likely a loanword from a European substrate.

Clearly related to πυλεών (puleṓn, “wreath”); on this basis, a pre-form *πύλος (*púlos) has been assumed. This *πύλος (*púlos) is then connected with Sanskrit पुलक (pulaka, “erection or bristling of the hairs of the body”), पुलस्ति (pulasti, “wearing the hair straight”) and पुल (pula, “horripilation”). From Iranian, Kurdish is adduced, and from Celtic Irish ulcha (“beard”). However, Mayrhofer doubts this connections; in fact the suffix -ιγγ- may rather point to a Pre-Greek origin.

cog

Both the substance and its properties (like smell and fermentation) may have caused the transference of meaning from "pus" to "milk".

An l-stem is supposed in κύλα (kúla, “holes under the eyelids”), but see κοῖλος (koîlos, “hollow”) too. These words are generally connected with the group of κῠ́ω (kŭ́ō, “to be pregnant with”), assuming a basic meaning "curvation", whence both "hole" and "vaulting".

No etymology. The comparisons with Armenian թրիք (tʻrikʻ, “dung, manure”), if from *tiHr-, Proto-Germanic *þainaz (“moist”) and Russian тина (tina, “scum, slime”) remain speculative, since there is no evidence of a root *tiH- or *tH-i- in this meaning. The same holds for the connection with τῖφος (tîphos, “pond, marsh”). The verb τήκω (tḗkō, “to melt”) is not related, either.

Formation like ἀγκαλίς (ankalís), τρυφαλίς (truphalís) and φυσαλίς (phusalís), but without etymology. Connection with μάθυαι (máthuai, “jaws”) and μασάομαι (masáomai, “to chew”) seems impossible. Furnée compares Latin matula (“vessel for liquids; chamber pot”), Georgian მათარა (matara, “waterskin, flask”) and βάτος (bátos, “Hebrew unit of measure”). Beekes does not dismiss a Pre-Greek origin.

Proto-Slavic *želǫdъkъ (“stomach”) shows remarkable similarity with this word: Russian желу́док (želúdok), Czech žaludek, Polish żołądek, which may be reconstructed as Proto-Indo-European *gʰel-ond-, showing a similar formation to that of the Greek word if it comes from Proto-Indo-European *gʰol-nd-. Lithuanian skilándis (“sausage-stomach”) is considered unrelated, but shows the same suffix. There are a number of problems with this account: first, the deviating form of χόλιξ (khólix, “bowels of oxen”) remains unexplained. Second, Furnée compares not only κόλον (kólon, “large intestine”), but also καλίδια (kalídia, “intestines”) and γόλα (góla), γάλλια (gállia) and γάλλος (gállos); he also adduces Old Armenian քաղիրթ (kʻałirtʻ, “intestines of animals”). Beekes takes the variation as showing that the word is likely Pre-Greek. Hayden and Stifter derive both the Greek lemma and Slavic *želǫdъkъ from Proto-Indo-European *gʰelH-ond-, from the root *gʰelH- (“digestive organ, stomach”) found also in Celtic: Old Irish eclas (“gizzard”), gaile (“stomach”), Breton elaz (“gizzard”), Welsh glasog (“gizzard”), afu glas (“gizzard”), Old Cornish glas (“stomach”).

This word is a technical expression of unknown origin.
* Frisk's suggestion that the expression originally derives from weaving, connecting κρόκη (krókē, “woof”), is not likely.
* A connection with Balto-Slavic words for "bar, rod, rafters", like Lithuanian krake (“rod, staff”) and krēklas (“rafters”), seems rather speculative, though supported by Pokorny, who derives it from Proto-Indo-European *krek- (“post”) and also compares Proto-Celtic *krīkʷā (“furrow”).
* Furnée connects κόρση (kórsē, “temple, side of the head”), which is unwarranted.
