μυωξός: Difference between revisions

|etymtx=Grammatical information: m.<br />Meaning: [[dormouse]] (Opp. K. 2, 574).<br />Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin](X)<br />Etymology: Fick, GGA 1894, 241, proposed <b class="b3">*μυ-ωκ-ι̯ος</b> prop. "who shuts his eyes", verbal governing comp. of [[μύω]] [[sut]] and the word for [[eye]], IE <b class="b2">*ōkʷ-</b>, with ι̯<b class="b3">ο-</b>suffix and ev. lengthening in compounds; but this would have given <b class="b3">-σσ-</b>, not <b class="b3">-ξ-</b>. Wrong Prellwitz [[sub verbo|s.v.]] ([[μῦς]] + [[χθών]]?). -- Not quite clear ist [[μυωξία]], by H. and Suid. glossed with <b class="b3">ὑβριστικὸς λόγος</b>, after Suid. also = [[mouse-hole]], [[μυωπία]] (s.v.); if right, the 1. member must be [[μῦς]]. However, if the last explanation is correct, the connection with [[μύω]] [[shut]] cannot be correct. - I rather think that the word is Pre-Greek. Cf. [[μόροξος]].
