Ant.), - ώδης (Thphr.) `leek-colour, blue-green' (Capelle RhM 101, 35); 2. - ῖτις f. n. of a stone, after the colour (Thphr.; Redard 59f.); 3. - ιον n. plant-name `horehound, Marrubium etc.' (Hp., Arist., Thphr.; Andrews ClassPhil. 56, 76); from this πρασίτης οἶνος?

Πρασσαῖος m. nickname of a frog (Batr.; - σσ- hypocoristic; ?).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: The traditional identification with Lat. porrum (since Fick and Curtius) would lead to IE *pr̥som; the remarkable maintenance of the - σ- reminds of δασύς (s.v. w. lit.) beside Lat. densus. For a loan from a common source (Schwyzer 58) factual considerations can be adduced; cf. Schrader-Nehring Reallex. 2, 710ff., to this Vycichl Sprache 9, 21 f. (Anatol.-Sum.[?]). Further lit. w. other hypotheses (to be rejected) in WP. 2, 84, Walde LEW2 and W. -Hofmann s. porrum. -- If the word is Pre-Greek, this may explain the - σ- (not in Furnée).Page in Frisk: 2,589Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > πράσον
