2 ἔχις
ἔχις, - εως of toch PG [Pre-Greek]?Grammatical information: m. (f.)Meaning: `viper' (Att.).Derivatives: Dimin. ἐχίδιον (Arist.) and the plant-name ἔχιον (Dsc.; because of the resemblance of the fruit with the head of a snake, Strömberg Pflanzennamen 54), ἐχίειον (Nic.); further ἐχιῆες pl. = ἔχεις (Nic. Th. 133, only metrical variant?; cf. also Boßhardt 148); ἐχῖτις f. name of a stone (Plin., after the colour; cf. Redard Les noms grecs en - της 54). - Fem. ἔχιδνᾰ `viper' (Ion.-Att., Hes. Th. 297), mostly thought to be a ια-deriv. from *ἐχιδνός (Schwyzer 475; see Specht Ursprung 229 and 377), with ἐχιδν-αῖος and - ήεις (hell.); this is not very probable, however; - δνα is a typical Pre-Greek suffix; it must have been a loan from Pre-Greek.Origin: IE [Indo-European] [292] *h₁eǵhi- `snake' (sic; wrong Pok.)Etymology: If the interpretation of ἐχῖνος is correct, ἔχις must have a palatal ǵh. The comparable words for `snake', Skt. áhi- = Av. aži- like Arm. iž, nust then be connected with ὄφις. Also Welsh euod `Schafwürmer', euon `Pferdewurmer' may belong to ὄφις (Pedersen Vergl. Gramm. 1, 99, Lewis-Pedersen 29, Pok. 44. - Cf. also ἔγχελυς.Page in Frisk: 1,601-602Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ἔχις
