Origin: IE [Indo-European]X [probably] [587] * keuH- `hear, observe'

Etymology: With κῦδος is connected since Bezzenberger BB 27, 145 a Slavic word for `wonder', e.g. OCS, Russ. čúdo, gen. - ese, SCr. čȕdo, with the assumption of an ablaut * keuHdos-: *kuHdos \> *kūdos- (s. Porzig Gliederung 170). The Slavic noun is derived with d-suffix from a verb `learn, understand, hear', e.g. OCS čujǫ, čuti (with which also κοέω, s. v.); so čudo, κῦδος prop. "what was heard" like κλέος from ἔκλυον. Details in Pok. 587f., Vasmer Wb. s. čúdo and čúju, W.-Hofmann s. caveō. (Diff. on κῦδος Persson Beitr. 1, 188 n. 2: as "Ruf" to κῠδάζω). DELG doubts. - (On κυδρός a "gewagte Vermutung" in Wackernagel Berl. Sb. 1918, 411 (= Kl. Schr. 1, 330): to (Iran.) Σύδροι, people in Arachosia (prop. *"the famous one"), from where Skt. śūdrá- `member of the 4th caste'; cf. W.-Debrunner Aind. Gramm. 2: 2, 853 f.; cf. also Thieme KZ 69, 173 f. Mayrhofer refers to KEWA III 364f. and 798.)
