15 κύκνος

κύκνος

Grammatical information: m.

Meaning: `swan' (Il.), also name of a ship, after the front-part (Nicostr. Com.), and an eye- salve, after the colour (Gal.; with κυκνάριον `id.', Ät., Gal.); also PN (Pi.).

Derivatives: κύκνειος `belonging to Kyknos or the\/a swan' (Pi., S., hell.), f. - ῖτις (S., Redard Les noms grecs en - της 112); κυκνίας m. mame of a white eagle (Paus.; cf. κορακίας a.o., Chantraine Formation 94)

Origin: IE [Indo-European]X [probably] [597] *ḱeuk- `lighten, be white'

Etymology: Amply on κύκνος Thompson Birds s. v.; there also doubts on κυκνίας. Since Wood AmJPh 21, 179 as "the white one" (cf. on ἀλφός) connected with Skt. śócati `lighten, glow', šuk-rá- `light, hell, white'. (W.-)Hofmann s. cicōnia is rather (with Berneker and H. Petersson) inclined to assume an onomatopoet. origin (cf. Russ. kykъ `cry of a swan'). In κύδνος κύκνος H., after Specht Ursprung 121, 204, 229 old variation k: d, we have rather a hypercorrect writing after Lat. cycnus, cygnus (C-) = κύκνος, but also for Κύδνος (Schulze Kl. Schr. 700; cf. Schwyzer 208).
