"etymology_text": "Of uncertain origin. Based on the original sense of \"stone, rock\", Frisk derives the word from the root of μᾰ́ρνᾰμαι (mắrnămai, “to fight, battle”) (perhaps in a sense of \"stone weapons\"), with folk-etymological semantic influence from μαρμαίρω (marmaírō, “I sparkle”); others, such as Mazon, prefer to directly connect the word to μαρμαίρω (marmaírō). Due to the lack of strong evidence of connection to other words, as well as perhaps the semantic category of \"local rocks\", Beekes suggests Pre-Greek origin.\nAn alternative theory by Roberts suggests a reduplicative formation from Proto-Indo-European *mer- (“to rub away, cause harm, to die”), in the sense of marble's fragility.",

"etymology_text": "Of uncertain origin. Based on the original sense of \"stone, rock\", Frisk derives the word from the root of μᾰ́ρνᾰμαι (mắrnămai, “to fight, battle”) (perhaps in a sense of \"stone weapons\"), with folk-etymological semantic influence from μαρμαίρω (marmaírō, “I sparkle”); others, such as Mazon, prefer to directly connect the word to μαρμαίρω (marmaírō). Due to the lack of strong evidence of connection to other words, as well as perhaps the semantic category of \"local rocks\", Beekes suggests Pre-Greek origin.\nAn alternative theory by Roberts suggests a reduplicative formation from Proto-Indo-European *mer- (“to rub away, cause harm, to die”), in the sense of marble's fragility.",
