Origin: IE [Indo-European]X [probably] [950] * (s)keu- `prepare(?)'

Etymology: The nouns σκεῦος, -ή (for *σκεῦσος, - σά because of the retained ευ-diphthongs?; cf. Schwyzer 348 Zus. 4) look like primary formations and presuppose as such the former existence of a primary verb, approx. *σκεῦ[σ]-σαι, *σκεύ[σ]-ι̯ω, which must have been replaced by the second., denomin. or deverbat., σκευ-άζω. -- Expression of every-day language, prob. inherited, but without convincing etymology. Hypotheses by Prellwitz (to Lith. šáu-ju, -ti `shut, scove', Russ. sovátь `shove, sting, push', OHG sciozan `shut' a. o.; cf. Vasmer s. v.); by Zupitza Germ. Gutt. 122 (to OWNo. høyja, OE hēgan `carry out', Slav., e.g. OCS prě-kutiti `adorn'; cf. Vasmer s. kutítь). WP. 2, 546, Pok. 950f. Older lit. in Curtius 169.
