ONo. drjūpa `drip' (with dropi m. `drop'), of which the p however, if old, must go back on IE b, "eine ganz unwahrscheinliche Annahme" (Frisk); rather it is an innovation of one language. - Pok. 274f. - After θρύπτω prob. δρύπτω, s. v. We have here prob. a non-IE substratum word from Europe, of the type dicussed by Kuiper, NOWELE 25 (1995) 68-72.
