Talk:ἐλαία

Can't we link the etymology to ale instead? Zezen (talk) 08:53, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

No, it isn't related to ale. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 18:17, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

OK, what do you think of the relationship with Polish oliwa and olej then? A loan from Ancient Greek? Zezen (talk) 17:45, 18 January 2016 (UTC)

Those are probably loanwords from Latin olīva and oleum respectively. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 18:28, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
