Adj. - ερός `flat' (Theoc.), - όεις `id.' (D.P.), - ινος `made of marble slabs' (inscr.), - ώδης `overdrawn with panes, a crust' (Arist.). 5. - οῦς, - οῦντος (from - όεις) m. `(flat) cake' (com. etc.) with - ούντ-ιον, - ικός. - ινος, - ᾶς a.o. 6. - όω `to cover with slabs of marble' (Syria) with - ωσις f. (Asia Minor), - ωτή f. `kind of calamine' (Dsc.). 7. PlN: Πλάκος m. name of a side-branch of the Ida (mountain) (Il.) with ὑποπλάκ-ιος (Z 397), - ος (Str.); Πλακίη f. name of a Pelasg. colony on the Propontis (Hdt.) with πλακιανόν n. name of a eye-unguent (Aët.).Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: With pl. πλάκ-ες agrees exactly a northgerm. word, OWNo. flær f. pl. `rock-terrace', PGm. * flah-iz, IE *plák-es; to this the innovated sg. flā, PGm. * flah-ō (would be Gr. *πλάκ-η). To this several Germ. words: with grammatic change Nord. flaga f., MLG vlage f. `thin layer (of the earth), flatness'; with long vowel: OWNo. flō f. `layer, course' (PGm. * flōh-ō), OHG fluoh, NHG Flüche, Schweiz. Fluh f. `rockwall' etc. From Balt. still e.g. Lett. plaka f. `low lying place, plain', also `cow's excrement', plakt `become flat'. Here prob. also with metaph. meaning Lat. placidus `quiet, calm, still' (orig. meaning `even, flat' still in aqua placida a.o.?), placeō `be pleasant'. -- Beside IE plak stands with final voiced cons. plag- in πλάγιος, (doubtful πέλαγος, s. vv.), all velar enlargements of an in no language retained verb * pelā- `broaden'(?); s. also πλάσσω, παλάμη, παλαστή; to this WP. 2, 90 f., Pok. 831 f., W.-Hofmann s. placeō w. further forms and rich lit. -- From πλακοῦς, - οῦντος with unclear development Lat. placenta `a kind of flat cake'; s. W.-Hofmann s. v. (cf. also pollenta `peeled barley'). -- A form * plak- is impossible in IE; the root * pelh₂- cannot give a short a in Greek. So πλακ- must be a loan (from a Eur. substratum?)Page in Frisk: 2,550-551Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > πλάξ
