τρήρων
Appearance
Ancient Greek
[edit]Etymology
[edit]Based on the Doric forms τρᾱρόν (trārón), and ταρόν (tarón) with dissimilation, from an earlier unattested *τρασ-ρόν (*tras-rón), from Proto-Indo-European *trs-ró-, a zero grade formation of Proto-Indo-European *tres- (“to tremble”), whence also τρέω (tréō, “to flee; to dread”).[1]
Cognate with Avestan 𐬙𐬭𐬆𐬭𐬆𐬯𐬀𐬌𐬙𐬌 (trərəsaiti), Latin terreo, Old Irish tarrach, Lithuanian trišu, Latvian trisēt, Old Church Slavonic трѧсти (tręsti), Sanskrit त्रसति (trasati). Not related to ὀτρηρός (otrērós, “quick, nimble”).
