Heidelb. 1923: 2, 14, 13); <b class="b3">λυγγούριον</b> (<b class="b3">λυγκ-</b>, <b class="b3">λιγκ-</b> u. a.) n. kind of amber (Thphr., Delos IIIa), s. v.<br />Derivatives: <b class="b3">λυγκίον</b> dimin. (Callix.), <b class="b3">λύγγιος</b> <b class="b2">of the lynx</b> (Edict. Diocl.). On ambivalent PN <b class="b3">Λυγκεύς</b> (Hdt., Pi.) s. Boßhardt 130f.; from there <b class="b3">λυγκεύς</b> as name of an eye-salve (medic.).<br />Origin: LW [a loanword which is (probably) not of Pre-Greek origin] Eur. substr.<br />Etymology: Old name of the lynx, found also in Armenian, German and Balto-Slavic. Except for the nasal <b class="b3">λύγξ</b> has a counterpart in Lith. consonant stem <b class="b2">lūš-ų</b> (gen. pl.), with as innovation the <b class="b2">i-</b>stem <b class="b2">lū́š-is</b>. The same transformation show the Slav. words, which however through influence of an other word (<b class="b2">*rysъ</b> [[sotted]], [[red]]?) got an initial <b class="b2">r-</b>: Russ. <b class="b2">rýsь</b> etc. Also elsewhere transformstions have occurred: with thematic vowel in Swed. [[lō]] [[lynx]] (PGm. <b class="b2">*luh-a-</b>, IE <b class="b2">*luḱ-o-</b>); with <b class="b2">s-</b>sufflx in Westgermanic: OHG [[luhs]], OE [[lox]] (cf. Germ. [[Fuchs]], OE [[fox]]); with <b class="b2">n-</b>suffix in Arm. <b class="b2">lus-an-un-k`</b> (<b class="b3">ἅπ</b>. <b class="b3">εἰρ</b>.) pl., which also supposes old full grade (IE <b class="b2">*leuḱ-</b> or <b class="b2">louḱ-</b>). The Arm. <b class="b2">n-</b>fomation might be connected somehow with the Greek nasalinfix, which reappers also in Lith. dial. (Zem.) <b class="b2">lųnšis</b>. - Details and further connections in Bq, WP. 2, 411 f., Pok. 690, Fraenkel Wb. s. <b class="b2">lū́šis</b>, Vasmer Wb. s. <b class="b2">rýsь</b>. - Fur. 121 adduces considerations that show that it is in origin a non-IE word. The word has been connected with the root <b class="b2">*leuḱ-</b> [[see]] and would refer to the sharp sight of the animal. But this cannot explain the long [[u]] of Balto-Slavic. Nor can the <b class="b2">-n-</b> be explained; nor the [[g]] of Gr. <b class="b3">λύγγ-ιος</b>. So the word is non-IE, prob. a loan from a Eur. substratum. - I see no reason to connect the gloss <b class="b3">λουνόν λαμπρόν</b> H. The PN <b class="b3">Λυγκεύς</b> may be cognate or not. S. also <b class="b3">λυγγούριον</b>.
