Gramm. hom. 1, 96 und 215) f.Derivatives: γάστρα, -η `belly of a vase' (Il., inscr., cf. μήτρα); γάστρων `pot-belly' (Alc.). Denom. γαστρίζω (Ar..Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: The etymology from *γρασ-τήρ as "Fresser, glutton" to γράω (q. v.) (formally = Skt grastar- `Verfinsterer' (as astron. term), prop.. "devourer") seems generally accepted. But you don't eat with yout belly. DELG "le ventre de femme en tant qu'elle concoit et porte un enfant" does not convince. An IE etymology is improbable (a-vocalism). Otherwise Brugmann IF 11, 271 A. 1 (to γέμω) and Szemerényi WuS NF 1, 154ff. (s. γέντα). - Names for `belly' see Janzén Zeitschr. f. slav.
