Derivatives: ἔρῠμα n. `defence' (Il.), diminut. ἐρυμάτιον (Luc.); from there ἐρυμν-ός `for defence, protected' (Ion.-Att.) with ἐρυμνότης `defence-force' (X., Arist.), ἐρυμνόω `defend' (Agath.). ἐρυσμός `defence, protection' (h. Cer. 230). ἐρῠ́σιμον ( εἰ- metr. length.) name of a kind of mustard (Thphr., Dsc.), because of its protection (Strömberg Pflanzennamen 81); from *ἔρῠ-σις or directly from verb, cf. Arbenz Die Adj. auf - ιμος 20. ῥυ̃̄τήρ m. `protector, watcher' (ρ 187, 223), ῥύ̄τωρ `id.' (A.

Supp. 150 [lyr.], AP), after the adj. in - σιος (Chantraine Formation 41) or from ῥῦσις `saving' ( Epigr. Gr. 200 [Kos], LXX). ῥῦμα `defence' (Hp., trag.).

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [1161] *u̯eru-, *u̯ruH-? `avert, ward off, protect, defend'

Etymology: For the assumption of an orig. *Ϝέρυ-μαι speak notably the Skt. nouns varū-tár- m. `protector', várū-tha- n. `defence, protection' (with vr̥ṇóti `avert', Germ., e. g. Goth. warjan ` wehren' etc.). Doubts arise from the absence of a trace of a digamma in Homer; attempts for a solution in Solmsen Unt. 245ff. So we have two ablaut-degrees, Ϝερυ- and Ϝρῡ-, the last certain in εἴρῡται \< *Ϝέ-Ϝρῡ-ται etc. (cf. above), but further with unclear distribution. Esp. the general Ionic present εἰρύομαι, perhaps also for Εὑρυσί-λαος, one is prepared to assume vowel-prothesis, ἐ-Ϝερυ-, ἐ-Ϝρυ-, which is forbidden by modern insights: an unsolved problem. S. Solmsen l. c. - Against connection with Lat. servāre Solmsen l. c.
