π°πΉππ°ππΏπ½π³πΉ
Gothic
[edit]Etymology
[edit]A compound; the first element is *π°πΉππ (*aiΖs), from Proto-Germanic *ehwaz (βhorseβ). According to Lehmann (1986), the second element is either derived from Proto-Indo-European *hβed- (βto biteβ) (then with the sense of "point" and related to ππΏπ½πΈπΏπ (tunΓΎus, βtoothβ)), or from a word related to ππΏπ½π³π½π°π½ (tundnan, βto be burningβ) (then with the sense of "burning" and related to English tinder).

Usage notes
[edit]This term translates Koine Greek Ξ²Ξ¬ΟΞΏΟ (bΓ‘tos, βbramble, prickly bushβ), twice referring to the burning bush, once to a certain plant. In the last instance, it may, according to Lehmann (1986) possibly refer to the sloe (Prunus spinosa).
