κυνέω
Appearance
Ancient Greek
[edit]Etymology
[edit]From Proto-Indo-European *ku-ne-s-, from *kw(e)s- (“to kiss”), which appears to be onomatopoeic. Cognate with Hittite [script needed] (ku̯aššzi ~ ku̯aššanzi, “idem”), Proto-Germanic *kussaz (“idem”). Beekes additionally proposes an alternative reconstruction of the Indo-European root as *ḱwes-, which would suggest an equivalence of this root to the homophonous root meaning "to pant, hiss", the latter whence Sanskrit श्वस् (śvas, “idem”).[1]
