2 κᾱραβος
κά̄ραβοςGrammatical information: m.Meaning: 1. `a prickly crustacean' (Epich., Ar., Arist.; cf. Thompson Fishes s. v.), metaph. a light canoo (EM); 2. `a horned beetle' (Arist.).Other forms: σκορόβυλος κάνθαρος H.Derivatives: καραβίς `kind of sea-crab' (Gal., Sch.), καράβιον = ἐφόλκιον (H. s. ἐφόλκια, sch.); prob. also καραβαία δίκρουν ξύλον H. (s. Grošelj Razprave 2, 11). - Beside it κηραφίς = καραβίς (Nic. Al. 394) (sec. after the names in - φ(ο)-; and epic language imitating η for α?).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Unknown; cf. Cohen BSL 27 (1927) 100, wo gives several similar Arabic words. Acc. to Bq s. v. - βος un-Greek (Macedonian) for Gr. - φος \< IE. - bho-. Fur. (index s.v.) connects several words; first there is καρβάρεοι κάραβοι; then there is a prenasalized form καράμβιος (Ar. Byz. Epit. 9, 11; v.l. Arist. HA 551b17), and κεράμβυξ s.v. (Nic. Fr. 39, H.) and κεράμβηλον Η. (- ηλο- is well known from Pre-Greek), which cannot be derived from κέρας (as Frisk suggests). He further posits *σκαραβαῖος on the basis of Lat. scarabaeus, which seems unavoidable. The form σκορόβυλος no doubt continues *σκαραβ-υλ-, where the α's turned to - ο- before the - υ- in the following syllable (Fur. 340 discusses the phenomenon, but did not see that it operated here); so here we have evidence for σκαραβ. Then there is γραψαῖος (Diph. Siph. ap. Ath. 3, 106d) = κάραβος, which he assumes to stand for *γαρψαῖος (doubtful, s.v.). Further s. on σκορπίος (which in my view does not belong here). It is clear that we have here a Pre-Greek word with several of its usual variants. So we have * (s)karab-. - From κάραβος Lat. cārabus `crab', `small boat' (with Rom., e. g. Fr. caravelle) and a Slavic word for `ship', e. g. Russ. koráblь; s. Vasmer Russ. et. Wb. s. v. with lit. and crit.Page in Frisk: 1,785Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > κᾱραβος

4 γραψαῖος
Grammatical information: m.Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Not with Chantraine, Rev. Ph. 1965, 211-214 from γράφω. With Frisk "Herkunft unbekannt, vielleicht Mittelmeerwort." He compared κάραβος (Epich.). Fur. 123, 154 adduced other forms for `beetle' and `crab': Lat. scarabaeus, which supposes *σκαραβαῖος (note the agreement with our word); σκορόβυλος (from *σκορβ-) and σκορπίος. So we have: proth. s-, var. α\/ο, β\/π, all of which point to a Pre-Greek word. Fur. assumes that γραψ- stands for *γαρψ-; the ψ is difficult. This gives a word (s)karP-. Further καράμβιος (Fur. 109), καρβάρεοι κάραβοι H.; 169 καραβίδες; κηραφίς and κεράμβυξ, κεράμβηλον (with ε\/α and prenasalization). Frisk points to the "allgemeine Ähnlichkeit mit ital. ( g)ravosta, nhd. Krebs, Krabbe und anderen germ. Wörtern ebenso wie mit κάραβος".Page in Frisk: 1,326Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > γραψαῖος
