Debrunner IF 21, 98); as further basis one might best posit a noun *μιστο- v. t., which could stand for *μιτ-το- ( μιδ-το-, μιθ-το-) and which could be connected with some Germ. words for `hew, cut etc.', e.g. Goth. maitan, OWNo. meita (IE *d), OWNo. meiđa `injure the body, mutilate' (IE *t or *dh); further there is the in all respects suspected Skt. méthati `injure (?), which must be kept apart (Mayrhofer KEWA s.v.). Further, even more uncertain or wrong combinations in WP. 2, 222 f. (after Persson Stud. a.o.), Pok. 697. (Diff. Schwyzer Glotta 12, 8f.: *μίστυ-λος from *μιστύς \< *μυσ-τύς to Oberdt. Müsel, Musel f. ` log, chump, sawn off clump'.) -- Cf. μίτυλος. -- The word may well be Pre-Greek.Page in Frisk: 2,244-245Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > μιστύλλω
