1 κονίς
Grammatical information: f.Meaning: `eggs of lice, fleas, bugs' (Arist., Antyll. ap. Orib., Hdn.).Other forms: mostly. pl. κονίδες f.Derivatives: κονιδισμός `disease of the eyelids' (Cyran.; on the formation Chantraine Formation 142ff.).Etymology: Old word, to which several languages have cognates. Closest are Germ. OE knitu, OHG (h)niz ` Niss' and Alb. thënī́ `louse', which will go back on IE. *ḱnid- (Gr. κονίς after κόνις? Georgacas Glotta 36, 164). Beside it with IE. gh- Slav., e. g. Russ. gnída, Latv. gnĩda, NGerm., e. g. OWNo. gnit `louse'. With -l- Lith. glìnda `id.', which resembles Lat. lēns, lendis `id.'. Diff. again Celt., e. g. MIr. sned f. `id.' (IE. * snidā) and Arm. anic `Laus' (IE. *sn̥nid-s-?). - Because of folketymological, euphemistic, tabooistic changes no uniform proto-form van be reconstructed. Connection with κναίω, κνίζω gives a problem for Alb. thënī́ which has an initial platal. The Slavisc and NGerm. forms have been connected with a verb for `gnaw through, rub' (Gr. χνίει, χναύω etc.). - Details in Pok. 608 a. 437, W.-Hofmann a. Ernout-Meillet s. 2. lēns, Fraenkel Lit. et.
