"etymology_text": "Inherited from Byzantine Greek σβήνω, from Ancient Greek σβέννυμι (sbénnumi) through its aorist 3rd plural ἔσβησαν (ésbēsan) creating the new verb σβήνω in the pattern of ἔλυσα (élusa, “(singular) I untied”) > modern λύνω (lýno). The proscribed spelling σβύνω (svýno), from a dated etymology through σβεννύω (sbennúō), a variant of σβέννυμι.",
