Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: f.
Meaning: bathtub (A.), also cradle (Alex. Aet.), coffin (Parth.), name of a dance (H.; s. Lawler AmJPh 71, 70ff.). Cf. δοῖτρον πύελον, σκάφην H., from *δροῖτρο?
Derivatives: None.
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]
Etymology: Unexplained. After Holthausen IF 17, 294 and Lidén 18, 414 from *δροϜ-ιτα (but there is no suffix -ιτα, Fur. 238 n. 45, except a Pre-Greek one). One compares also OE trīg, NEng. tray flat trough, dish from PGm. *trau-i̯a-, IE *drou-i̯o-; both from the word for wood (s. δόρυ, δρῦς); cf. Skt. dró-ṇam trough. The younger form δρύτη has been explained from the pronunciation υ for οι and from association with δρῦς (or Pre-Greek?). See also Wackernagel Unt. 187 n. 1; Lasso de la Vega Emerita 23, 109ff.: to δρύεται. - From δροίτη prob. Lat. dureta wooden bathtub (Schwyzer KZ 62, 199ff.).

Middle Liddell

δροίτη, ἡ, n
a bath, Aesch. [deriv. uncertain]

Frisk Etymology German

δροίτη: {droítē}
Grammar: f.
Meaning: Badewanne (A., Nik., Lyk.), auch Wiege (Alex. Aet.), Sarg (Parth.), N. eines Tanzes (H.; dazu Lawler AmJPh 71, 70ff.). Erweiternde Umbildung δοῖτρον· πύελον, σκάφην H., aus *δροῖτρον.
Derivative: Sonst keine Ableitungen.
Etymology: Nicht sicher erklärt. Nach Holthausen IF 17, 294 und Lidén 18, 414 aus *δροϝιτα, Parallelbildung zu ags. trīg, neng. tray flacher Trog, Schüssel aus urg. *trau-i̯a-, idg. *drou-i̯o-, beide somit vom Wort für Holz (s. δόρυ, δρῦς) abgeleitet; zur Bed. vgl. aind. dró-ṇam Trog. Die Bildung von δροίτη wäre auffallend, aber nicht ohne Seitenstücke, z. B. λάϊτον, λήϊτον Stadthaus von λαός, λεώς Volk, s. Schwyzer 504. Die jüngere Form δρύτη beruht auf der Aussprache υ für οι und auf daraus folgender Assoziation mit δρῦς. Ausführlich über δροίτη mit weiterer Lit. Wackernagel Unt. 187 A. 1. Abzulehnen Specht Ursprung 139: droi̯- (auch in δρίος) und drou̯- alter Stammwechsel; Sapir. Lang. 15, 185: zu ὕδωρ(?); Lasso de la Vega Emerita 23, 109ff.: zu δρύεται. — Aus δροίτη stammt wahrscheinlich lat. dureta hölzerne Badewanne (Schwyzer KZ 62, 199ff.).
