Greek (Liddell-Scott)
ἔχῐς: -εως, ὁ, γεν. πληθ. ἔχεων, Πλάτ. Εὐθύδ. 290Α· παρὰ τῷ Νικάνδρῳ γεν. ἔχιος, πληθ. ἐχίσεσσι, ἔχιας. Ἔχιδνα, «ὀχιά», «ὄχεντρα», Πλάτ. Συμπ. 217Ε, Ἀριστ. π. τὰ Ζ. Ἱστ. 3. 1, 28 (ἔνθα διακρίνεται ἀπὸ τοῦ ὠοτόκου ὄφεως), κτλ.· συκοφάντης καὶ ἔχις τὴν φύσιν Δημ. 799. 4· πορεύεσθαι διὰ τῆς ἀγορᾶς ὥσπερ ἔχις ὁ αὐτ. 786, ἐν ἀρχῇ. - Ἡ ἔχιδνα κατὰ τὸν Νίκανδρον ἐν Θηρ. 129, εἶναι τὸ θῆλυ τοῦ ἔχεως· ἄλλοι νομίζουσιν ὅτι ἔχις καὶ ἔχιδνα εἶναι δύο διάφορα εἴδη: ὁ Ὀππ. ἔχει τὸ ἔχις ὡς θηλυκ., Κυν. 3. 439. (Ἐκ τῆς √ΕΧ, ΕΓΧ, παράγονται ὡσαύτως αἱ λέξεις, ἔχιδνα, ἔγχελυς, Ἐχίων πρβλ. Σανσκρ. ah-is Λατ. ang-uis, ang-uilla· Ἀρχ. Ὑψηλ.

French (Bailly abrégé)
εως (ὁ, rar. ἡ)
vipère, d’ord. mâle de la vipère.
Étymologie: cf. lat. anguis.
Greek Monolingual
ἔχις, -εως, ὁ, ἡ (Α)
1. έχιδνα, οχιά
2. μτφ. (για ανθρώπους) κακός, ύπουλος και επιβλαβής προς τους άλλους χαρακτήρας («ὅταν συκοφάντην καὶ πικρὸν καὶ ἔχιν τὴν φύσιν ἄνθρωπον ἴδητε», Δημοσθ.)
3. είδος φυτού, το έχιον.
[ΕΤΥΜΟΛ. Βλ. λ. έχιδνα].
Greek Monotonic
ἔχῐς: -εως, ὁ, γεν. πληθ. ἐχέων, οχιά, έχιδνα, σε Πλάτ.· μεταφ., συκοφάντης καὶ ἔχις τὴν φύσιν, σε Δημ.
Russian (Dvoretsky)
ἔχῐς: εως ὁ гадюка (самец) (Vipera ammedytes) Plat., Arst., Dem., Plut.
Frisk Etymological English
-εως of toch PG [Pre-Greek]?
Grammatical information: m. (f.)
Meaning: viper (Att.).
Derivatives: Dimin. ἐχίδιον (Arist.) and the plant-name ἔχιον (Dsc.; because of the resemblance of the fruit with the head of a snake, Strömberg Pflanzennamen 54), ἐχίειον (Nic.); further ἐχιῆες pl. = ἔχεις (Nic. Th. 133, only metrical variant?; cf. also Boßhardt 148); ἐχῖτις f. name of a stone (Plin., after the colour; cf. Redard Les noms grecs en -της 54). - Fem. ἔχιδνα viper (Ion.-Att., Hes. Th. 297), mostly thought to be a ια-deriv. from *ἐχιδνός (Schwyzer 475; see Specht Ursprung 229 and 377), with ἐχιδν-αῖος and -ήεις (hell.); this is not very probable, however; -δνα is a typical Pre-Greek suffix; it must have been a loan from Pre-Greek.
Origin: IE [Indo-European] [292] *h₁eǵhi- snake (sic; wrong Pok.)
Etymology: If the interpretation of ἐχῖνος is correct, ἔχις must have a palatal ǵh. The comparable words for snake, Skt. áhi- = Av. aži- like Arm. iž, nust then be connected with ὄφις. Also Welsh euod Schafwürmer, euon Pferdewurmer may belong to ὄφις (Pedersen Vergl. Gramm. 1, 99, Lewis-Pedersen 29, Pok. 44. - Cf. also ἔγχελυς.
Middle Liddell
an adder, viper, Plat.; metaph., συκοφάντης καὶ ἔχις τὴν φύσιν Dem.
