[ˈɸʲiːa̯kɨlʲ]

Unknown. Michael Weiss has expressed a complete lack of faith that any satisfactory etymology can be found: "No etymology worth its salt."
Discredited etymologies
* An ancient etymology derives it from Latin fīgō (“to fix”), the idea being that a tooth is a "mouth fixture"; this explanation is impossible on phonological grounds and extremely unlikely on semantic ones.
* MacBain suggests a connection with Middle Irish fec (“spade, tooth, tusk”), assuming that the latter is actually *féc; the two would then both be from Proto-Celtic *weikkā of unknown origin. This etymology is also phonetically impossible because Proto-Celtic *ei should have changed to ía before an unpalatalized consonant, so Middle Irish fec cannot have been **féc in the first place.

sga-conj-complex

<i class="Latn mention" lang="sga">ro-</i>form

Middle Irish: eplaid, ablaid

From ess- (“out of”) + Class B third-person singular neuter infixed pronoun d- (“it”) + Proto-Celtic *balnīti, from Proto-Indo-European *gʷelH- (“throw”). Thus literally ‘throw it’, originally either a euphemism or slang.
The preterite forms in at·bath- and the verbal noun apthu are from ess- + d- + original preterite passive form of baïd (“to die”), from Proto-Celtic *bayeti, from Proto-Indo-European *gʷeh₂- (“tread”) (via a euphemistic meaning similar to pass away).
Compare Middle Welsh aballu (“die, perish”) (from *ad-balni-), Ancient Greek βάλλω (bállō, “throw”), Old English cwelan (“die”), Old Armenian կեղեմ (kełem, “torment, torture”), Lithuanian gėlà (“pain”)), compare Old Armenian կամ (kam, “to stand”), Latvian gāja (“went”).
