Lat. sex, Germ., e. g. Goth. saíhs, Skt. ṣáṣ-, Lith. šeš-ì, OCS šes-tь, Alb. gjash-tē, Toch. A ṣäk go back on IE *seḱs. But Gr. Ϝέξ, Arm. vec̣, Celt., e. g. Welsh chwech, Av. xšvaš have u̯- in the anlaut; so *su̯eḱs; several details remain unclear. Gr. ἕξ like Ϝέξ will continue *su̯eḱs with loss of the digamma or the breath; on Boeot. ἕξ (beside Ϝικαστῆ) Schwyzer 226 w. n. 4. - The ordinal ἕκτος, Ϝέκτος can be both *su̯eḱs-to-s and *su̯eḱ-to-s. An IE sequence -ḱt- seems necessary for certain Germanic forms, OHG sehto (beside sehsto), OWNo. sétte. Other forms however show -s-: Lat. sextus, Goth. saíhsta, Toch. A ṣkäst; others again are uncertain: Skt. ṣaṣṭhá-, Lith. šẽštas, OCS šestъ; note Gaul. suexos. - S. Schwyzer 590f., 595f., W.-Hofmann s. sex etc. - On unclear ξέστριξ κριθή ἡ ἑξαστιχος. Κνίδιοι H. s.
