Grammatical information: m.Meaning: `a locust' (Thphr.).Other forms: βροῦχος (LXX, Ph.), βρούκα (Cypr., H.); βραῦκος (Cret.), βραύκη (AB, H.), βρε\<ῦ\> κος ἡ μικρὰ ἀκρίς, ὑπὸ Κρητῶν H., βρύκος (H.), βρόκοι ἀττέλεβοι, ἀκρίδες H.Dialectal forms: Ion. acc. to H.Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: βρύκος (and βροῦχος) was compared (EM) with βρύκω `eat greedily, gobble, grind' but the agreement may be secondary. - No doubt a Pre-Gr. word, which fits the vowel-variation; the names if small animals show more often variation, but this is often exactly due to foreign origin, or dialectal differences (cf. cf. Schwyzer 198). S. also βερκνίς. - Through Lat. bruchus Fr. bruche.Page in Frisk: 1,271-272Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > βροῦκος
