Frisk Etymological English

-ακος
Grammatical information: m.
Meaning: Des. resp. adjunct of the hare, λαγωός (Nic.).
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: Unexplained. Often compared wit κίνδαξ (s. v.); so for *κίναξ with hypercorrect σκ- to κινέω, κίνυμαι? -- Prob. Pre-Greek; it may have nasalised (δ > ν) beside a prenasalised δ (= νδ); note -ακ-. There is no reason to explain away the σ-.

Frisk Etymology German

σκίναξ: -ακος
{skínaks}
Grammar: m.
Meaning: Bez. bzw. Beiwort des Hasen, λαγωός (Nik.).
Etymology : Unerklärt. Oft mit κίνδαξ (s. d.) verglichen; somit für *κίναξ mit hyperkorrektem σκ- zu κινέω, κίνυμαι?
