Furnée connects ὄλπα (ólpa, “kind of food”); if the gloss is cognate, it must be Pre-Greek, which is certainly a good possibility.

A Northwest Semitic loanword, attested as Ugaritic 𐎀𐎔𐎐 (ảpn, “wheel of a chariot”) and Hebrew אוֹפַן (ʾōp̄án, “wheel of a chariot”). The clipped variant has perhaps been connected vulgarly with πήνη (pḗnē, “spool”).

Ending as in μόλυβδος (mólubdos) and κίβδος (kíbdos). A connection with λευκός (leukós, “white”) is morphologically hard to explain, as the suffix -δος is not productive. According to Beekes, the word is probably Pre-Greek.

According to Frisk, it is an old verbal noun from εἰλέω (eiléō, “to turn, roll”), which is from Proto-Indo-European *welH- (“to turn, wind”), properly meaning "that which winds or coils". However, a prothetic vowel *ἐ-ϝλ-ή is impossible, unless *h₁uel- is assumed; however, this would give ὑλ-. In view of all these considerations, Beekes prefers a Pre-Greek origin for this word.

A rhyming formation to κνέφας (knéphas). Usually Sanskrit क्षप् (kṣáp, “night”) is considered to be somehow related, but a precise connection cannot be established. Furnée takes σεῖφα (seîpha, “darkness, gloom”) as a shortened form of this word and also suggests to connect ζέφυρος (zéphuros, “west wind”). The variations would point to a Pre-Greek origin.

The formation is similar to γέλγῑς (gélgīs), δέλλῑς (déllīs) and ὄρνῑς (órnīs). Cognates have been supposed in μηρύω (mērúō, “to wind up”) as well as in βρόχος (brókhos, “noose”) and μάραθον (márathon, “fennel”). The word may be of Pre-Greek origin and related to μήρινθος (mḗrinthos, “fishing line”) and μῆριγξ (mêrinx, “bristle, hair”) but compare Latvian mer̂ga, Proto-Slavic *merža (“net”), and possibly Lithuanian márška (“fishing net”).

Hemmerdinger compares Egyptian hnw (“jar, unit of measure”), while Furnée compares Hittite 𒀀𒂵𒀭𒉌 (a-ga-an-ni /aganni/, “bowl”), Hurrian 𒀀𒂵𒀭𒉌 (a-ga-an-ni /aganni/, “bowl”), which is connected to Akkadian 𒀀𒂵𒉡 (a-ga-nu /agannu/, “large bowl, cauldron”). He also compares ἀγάννα (agánna, “sacred chariot”) and λαχάννα (lakhánna). Perhaps it is from Persian, but according to Beekes no solution can be offered.

According to Furnée, it is a shortened form of ψέφας (pséphas, “darkness, gloom”) and thus from Pre-Greek.

No etymology. Furnée compares στρύχνον (strúkhnon). On the epenthesis, compare κόνυζα (kónuza)/κνύζα (knúza); thus he assumes that this word stands for *δρύκνιον (*drúknion), suggesting a Pre-Greek origin.

According to Beekes, a technical term, which Brugmann derived from Proto-Hellenic *tʰwaryós, itself from Proto-Indo-European *dʰwer- (“door”). Compare θύρα (thúra, “door”).
On the other hand, Lubotsky and Mayrhofer derive the term from Proto-Indo-European *dʰurh₁- (“chariot pole”), and compare it with Hittite [script needed] (tūrii̯a-, “to harness”), Sanskrit धुर् (dhur, “yoke, pole”), and perhaps Tocharian A tursko (“draught ox”). Given the similarity in form and, to some extent, meaning between the two proto-Indo-European forms, it is possible they are connected.

desc

→ Classical Syriac: ܐܡܒܝܩܐ (ʾambīqā), ܐܡܒܝܩܘܣ (ʾambīqos), ܐܢܒܝܩܐ (ʾinbīqā), ܝܢܒܝܩܐ (yinbīqā)

→ English: ambix

The suffix is no doubt a substrate element, as it is in κύλιξ (kúlix). It is often connected with ἄμβη (ámbē, “raised edge”) and ἄμβων (ámbōn, “crest of a hill”), but this remains uncertain. Derivation from ἀναβαίνω (anabaínō, “to mount”) seems most improbable. Ultimately, the origin of the word is still uncertain.


κακορραφία

From κακός (kakós, “bad”) + ῥάπτω (rháptō, “to sew”) + -ία (-ía).

affix

Homer, '''Iliad
οὐ μὰν οἶδ᾿ εἰ αὖτε κακορραφίης ἀλεγεινῆς πρώτη ἐπαύρηαι καί σε πληγῇσιν ἱμάσσω.
I know not but that you may be the first to reap the fruits of your wretched ill-contriving

Greek: σφενδάμι (sfendámi)

The formation is similar to δίκταμνον (díktamnon) and ὀρόδαμνος (oródamnos). Often connected to σφενδόνη (sphendónē, “sling”), either through a meaning "trembling" or after the form of the seeds. However, the word is probably Pre-Greek.

Greek: χνούδι (chnoúdi)

Related to χνόη (khnóē, “axle-box”). Both words have been connected to χναύω (khnaúō, “to nibble”) and χνίω (khníō, “to break in small pieces”). Reasonable connections can then be found in Old Norse gnúa (“to rub”) and Proto-Slavic *gnusъ, which point to Proto-Indo-European *gnew-. Otherwise perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *knew- (“to scrape, scratch; to rub”) and related to κνίζω (knízō, “to pound, grate”) and κνύω (knúō, “to scratch”), with expressive aspiration; or from *ksnew-. Compare also μνόος (mnóos, “fine, soft down”).

τᾱ̀ς γᾰμφηλᾱ́ς (accusative plural)
γᾰμφηλαί (plural vocative)

Generally connected with γόμφος (gómphos, “peg, nail”), but the α-vocalism is problematic. Neither an influence from γαμψός (gampsós, “curved, crooked”) or γναμπτήρ (gnamptḗr, “jaw”) seems to be a sufficient explanation. Pedersen pointed to Proto-Slavic *gǫba (“lip, mouth”). According to Beekes, the word may be Pre-Greek given the suffix -ηλ-, which can be found also in τράχηλος (trákhēlos).


ζεκελτίδες

ζεκελτίδες • (zekeltídes)

Unknown. Furnée compares θικέλιον (thikélion, “turnip”) and believes the word is Pre-Greek.

σᾰρωνῐ́δες (plural vocative)

→ Portuguese: sarônide/sarónide

According to Strömberg, from σαρῶνες (sarônes, “net of hunters”), which remains unconvincing in spite of the parallels adduced. The word has been connected with σορωνίς (sorōnís, “old silver fir”); since the variation α/ο cannot be explained, it must be assumed a Pre-Greek origin.

Latin: crumēna

In origin, the word probably denoted small things of little value. The formation suggests a Pre-Greek origin and perhaps it is connected to γρῦ (grû, “dirt under the nail”). The comparison with Latin grumus (“hillock”) is unconvincing; better, but still doubtful, is that with Old English cruma (“crumb, morsel”).


ἠπίαλος

ἠπῐ́ᾰλε (singular vocative)
ἠπῐᾰ́λω (dual vocative)
ἠπῐ́ᾰλοι (plural vocative)

According to Strömberg, it is from ἤπιος (ḗpios, “mild, soothing”), so properly "mild fever", which would be a taboo paraphrase; this seems an improbable hypothesis. The word ἠπίολος (ēpíolos, “moth”) should not be separated from this one, as is shown by Lithuanian drugys (“fever; moth”), Albanian ethe (“fever”) with ethëzë (“moth”). Given the variation α/ο, it is probably a Pre-Greek word.

Unknown. The connection with Sanskrit अमीव (amīva, “pain, grief”) requires an unwarranted dissimilation m-ṷ > n-ṷ and should be rejected. As remarked by Nikolaev, derivation from *h₂eys- (“to search”) is semantically not very convincing; he proposed instead to connect the root *h₂eis(h₂) (“to refresh”).

καιέτα

head

καιέτα • (kaiéta)

It has been connected with καίω (kaíō, “to burn”), because of its burning taste. According to Beekes, the word is rather Pre-Greek.

Hesychius' gives the definition as: καλαμίνθη (kalamínthē, “catmint”), as they say in Boeotia.

The exact source is unknown. Not from Akkadian 𒇽𒂠𒂷 (^(LU₂).ḪUN.GA₂ /agru/, “hired man”). Maybe from Old Persian *angarā (“missive, letter”), a reconstructed word which is from Aramaic *𐡀𐡍𐡂𐡓𐡀 (*’engarā), form of *𐡀𐡍𐡂𐡓𐡕𐡀 (*’engartā), variant of 𐡀𐡂𐡓𐡕𐡀 (’iggartā), 𐡀𐡍𐡂𐡓𐡕𐡀 (’engirtā, “missive, letter; contract”), from Akkadian 𒂊𒄈𒌅 (egirtu, “inscribed tablet; oracle of fate, ambiguous wording; contract, bound deal”), from 𒄃 (egēru, “to be difficult, to be twisted or locked together; to have a twisted tongue, to be unable to speak against an order”).

Julius Pokorny connects this word with σπαίρω (spaírō, “to hammer, to make rapid movements”). Frisk connects this word with σφαῖρα (sphaîra, “ball”), but this seems far-fetched, especially since the semantic connection is not evident. The etymology thus remains uncertain.

Greek: κολοκύθα (kolokýtha)

Based on the suffix, frequent in plant names of substrate origin, Beekes takes the word as Pre-Greek. The word has also been compared with Sanskrit कालिन्द (kālinda, “watermelon”) (which is traditionally considered to be named after the Hindu goddess Kali), as well as with Kurdish [Term?] (kalak, “melon”), because an informant in Athenaeus says that it was introduced from India. This does not reveal much more about the word's origins, however.
