1 δελφύς
δελφύς, - ύοςGrammatical information: f.Meaning: `womb' (Hp.).Derivatives: Also δολφός ἡ μήτρα H.Etymology: Beside the feminine word for `womb' there is with zero grade the neuter Av. gǝrǝbuš- `young animal'; so for δελφύς too an s-stem may be considered (Schwyzer 516). With δολφός agrees (unless from *δελφός, cf. secondary Δολφοί) Skt. gárbha-, Av. garǝβa- m. `womb'. The Greek form with labiovelar (*guelbʰ-u-, *guolbʰ-o-) does not agree to one of the Germanic forms, OHG kilbur n. `mother-lamb', OHG kalb ` Kalb' etc., which like Lat. vulva and galba have to remain apart. - Unclear ἀδελιφήρ ἀδελφός.

2 ἀδελφεός
Grammatical information: m.Meaning: `brother' (Il.)Derivatives: ἀδελφιδέος, - δέη, Att. - δοῦς, - δῆ `nephew', `niece'. ἀδελιφήρ· ἀδελφεός, Λάκωνες H. will be contamination with φράτηρ.Origin: GR [a formation built with Greek elements]Etymology: With α copulativum (*sm̥- `one') and a word for `womb', cf. H.: ἀδελφοί οἱ ἐκ τῆς αὑτῆς δελφύος γεγονότες. δελφὺς γὰρ ἡ μήτρα. The - ε- cannot be from - εϜ- (Cret. - ιος); - eio-, of the adj. of material, Wackernagel Unt. 52f. From an expression *φράτηρ ἀδελφεός, as in Skt. sagarbhya- (cf. ὁμογαστριος). Att. ἀδελφός from contracted forms like ἀδελφοῦ \< - εοῦ. As the inherited word for `brother', φράτηρ, got primarily a religio-political meaning (cf. φράτρα, φρατρία), and perhaps also because the word could also be used for other members of the family of the same stage, like nephews, a term for the brother proper was needed. One has thought that the word derived from pre-Greek societies with mother-right (Kretschmer Glotta 2, 201ff.), but it may have been created in a society with concubines ( παλλακή; Gonda Mnem. 15 (1962) 390-2).See also: δελφύςPage in Frisk: 1,19Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ἀδελφεός
