λαιός 1.Grammatical information: adj.Derivatives: Diminut. (context unknown) λαίδιον ἀριστερόν, εὑώνυμον H.Origin: IE [Indo-European] [652] *leh₂iu̯o- `left'Etymology: Old word for `left', identical with Lat. laevus, Slav., e. g. OCS lěvъ, Russ. lévyj ; IE. *lai̯u̯os = *leh₂i-uo-?; on the phonetics Schwyzer 266 a. 314, on the u̯o-suffix ibd. 472 and Chantraine Form. 122f. Substantivized is λαίβα (= λαίϜα) ἀσπίς, πέλτη H.; prop. "what is worn in the left"(?). Here also Illyr. PN Laevicus, Levo (Krahe Spr. d. Illyr. 1, 55). - Hypothesis on a basic meaning `crooked' and further suggestions for connections, all quite hypothetic or arbitrary, in WP. 2, 378 f., W.-Hofmann s. laevus; also Huisman KZ 71, 104 (to λαιμός, λαῖτμα; IE. * lei- `towards below, askew', but this is phonetically impossible). On spread and use of λαιός, σκαιός, ἀριστερός Chantraine Μνήμης χάριν 1, 61 ff. - Fur. 339 compares λαφός ὁ ἀριστερᾳ̃ χειρὶ χρώμενος Η.; but Lat. laevus can hardly be separated from the word.Page in Frisk: 2,73Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > λαιός 1
