well I have to ask that question

I know that "Οργη" is a different word than "ορεγω"

the first one means rage or anger while the second means seek or reach out

in strong dictionary it was said that the first is derived from the second one and I believe that is wrong because the first one is with Greek origin while the second one is with Proto-IndoEuropean origin

so what do you think ? do you have any etymology dictionaries that proves or negate that ? also in Etymological Dictionary of Greek By Robert Beekes page 1097 it was said that Οργη has an Indoeuropean origin not Greek origin so what do you think ?

I don't see what these two words have to do with each other. They are from totally different roots, *werǵ- and *h₃reǵ-. —Rua (mew) 21:43, 3 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
