ἀμαλδύνω in Ancient Greek

IPA: /a.mal.dý.nɔː/, /a.malˈðy.no/, /a.malˈði.no/, /a.mal.dý.nɔː/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /a.malˈdy.no/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /a.malˈðy.no/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /a.malˈðy.no/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /a.malˈði.no/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan) [Show additional information ▼] [Hide additional information ▲]

Etymology: One assumes that the word is a denominative from an otherwise unknown pre-form *ἀμαλδύς (*amaldús). The first question is whether the word has the same root as βλαδύς (bladús, “flaccid, weak”). The ἀ- must then have been added after the privative formations, but this is not very probable; influence of ἀμαλός (amalós, “soft, weak”) is not very likely either. Connection with μέλδομαι (méldomai, “to smelt”) is not compelling because of the meaning. However, it has a variant ἀμέλδειν (améldein), which shows the same problem of found comparing this verb with βλαδύς (bladús). Other words, like μαλθακός (malthakós, “soft, tender”), μαλακός (malakós, “soft, tender”), ἀμαλός (amalós, “soft, weak”) and ἀμβλύς (amblús, “blunt, dulled”) differ too much to be useful. The etymology, thus, remains uncertain.

  "etymology_text": "One assumes that the word is a denominative from an otherwise unknown pre-form *ἀμαλδύς (*amaldús). The first question is whether the word has the same root as βλαδύς (bladús, “flaccid, weak”). The ἀ- must then have been added after the privative formations, but this is not very probable; influence of ἀμαλός (amalós, “soft, weak”) is not very likely either. Connection with μέλδομαι (méldomai, “to smelt”) is not compelling because of the meaning. However, it has a variant ἀμέλδειν (améldein), which shows the same problem of found comparing this verb with βλαδύς (bladús). Other words, like μαλθακός (malthakós, “soft, tender”), μαλακός (malakós, “soft, tender”), ἀμαλός (amalós, “soft, weak”) and ἀμβλύς (amblús, “blunt, dulled”) differ too much to be useful. The etymology, thus, remains uncertain.",
