λάφῡραGrammatical information: n.Meaning: `spoils' (Ion.- Att.),Other forms: pl., also sg. - ον,Compounds: as 1. member e. g. λαφυρο-πώλης m. `who sells spoils' (X.);Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Formation with ρ-suffix (evt. λ-suff. with dissim.), first from a υ-stem, beside which we find in ἀμφι-λαφής (IA.; *λάφος) an σ-stem. The primary verb is seen in Skt. lábhate `take, seize'; further one connects from Baltic several nouns, e. g. Lith. lõbis `big possession, treasure, riches' (IE * lābh-), lãbas `good', subst. `good(s)' (Fraenkel Wb. s. v.). Forms of this verb may also be found in the stem of λαμ-βάνω, s. v. - This interpretation is wrong; the word has the suffix -ῡρ- which is Pre-Greek (Beekes, Pre-Greek, Suffixes).Page in Frisk: 2,91Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > λάφῡρα
