Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]

Etymology: The above regular system can be without difficulty be understood as a Greek creation from a primary verb σφάζω, σφάξαι or a noun σφαγ-. -- No agreement outside Greek. Untenable hypotheses are mentioned by Bq and WP. 2, 653 (after Prellwitz and Persson), also in Hofmann Et. Wb. (to Arm. spananem `kill'). Cf. φάσγανον. -- Furnée 300 connects φάσγανον as φασγ-\/ σφαγ-; hard to consider as certain.
