See ἀφύη in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /a.pʰý.ɛː/, /aˈɸy.i/, /aˈfi.i/, /a.pʰý.ɛː/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /aˈpʰy.e̝/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /aˈɸy.i/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /aˈfy.i/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /aˈfi.i/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: A derivation from ᾰ̓- (a-, “un-”) + φύω (phúō, “to grow”) seems folk-etymological, but is defended by Meier-Brügger, suggesting Proto-Indo-European *n̥-bʰúH-o- (“without growth”), which is a recent formation compared with Sanskrit अभ्व (abhva, “monster”). However, DELG keeps open the possibility of a substrate word.
