"etymology_text": "The word is presumably the negative prefix νη-, but the stem is unclear. Strong's Greek Lexicon (1890) suggests νη- (nē-, negative prefix) + ἔπος (épos, “speech”), compare Latin infans (“infant”) from in- (not) + fāns (speaking).

"etymology_text": "The word is presumably the negative prefix νη-, but the stem is unclear. Strong's Greek Lexicon (1890) suggests νη- (nē-, negative prefix) + ἔπος (épos, “speech”), compare Latin infans (“infant”) from in- (not) + fāns (speaking). But a 2010 review by Beekes favors instead a derivation from ἤπιος, as suggested by Lacroix in 1937, with a possible PIE root *h2ep meaning 'join,' from which we would also have ἅπτω.",
