(Schwyzer 501; diff. Scheller Oxytonierung 52, where many details).Etymology: Prob. in essence identical with πύον, πύος `pus' (WP. 2, 82, Pok. 848f), but with gender and accent after ὀρός, τυρός, which belong to the same sphere of meaning. The byforms πύαρ and πύας (if the tradition is correct) after ἔαρ, πῖαρ, resp. ἅλας, κρέας a.o. Both the consistency and other properties (smell, fermentation etc.) may have caused the transference. The expressions for congeal, getting sour, ferment, also of rotting touch each other now and then, e.g. Skt. śara- m. `sour cream', also śáras- n. `skin on cooked milk', Lat. cariēs `decay', both to the verb for `break' in Skt. śr̥ṇā́ti, κεραΐζω (s.v.) a.o., ptc. śīrṇá- `rotten, spoiled', to which also Lat. colostra `beesting', if from * corostra, may belong; s.
