Derivatives: Dimin. πηγ-ίον (pap. II^a), - ίδιον (Suid.); the adj. - αῖος `belonging to the w.' (IA.), - ιμαῖος `id.' (Hdn. Epim.); the verb - άζω, also w. ἀνα-, κατα-, `to spring up' (Ph., AP), παγάσασθαι aor. inf. `to bathe in a w.' (Dodona; late.).

Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin](X)

Etymology: Formation like πληγ-ή, λήθ-η, ζω-ή a.o.; without explanation. -- Referring to the many designations for `well' from `cold' (e.g. OCS studenьcь: studenъ, Lith. šaltìnis: šáltas, νίβα [= νίφα] χιόνα, καλεῖται δε οὕτως καὶ κρήνη ἐν Θρᾳκῃ Phot.) by Grošelj Živa Ant. 4, 173 f. connected with πήγνυμαι in the meaning `stiffened, freeze', πηγυλίς `ice-cold' (cf. also παγετώδης `ice-cold', of water: παγετός `ice'); to be considered. Cf. also Στύξ. Older lit. w. explanations which are to be rejected in Bq. - A Pre-Greek word seems quite probable.
