[ΕΤΥΜΟΛ. Πρόκειται πιθ. για συμφυρμό τών ἅμα + ἄδρυα (ἁμάδρυα > μάδρυα
βλ. ἄδρυα και ἅμα). Κατ' άλλη άποψη, πρόκειται για δάνεια λ.].

Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: n. pl.
Meaning: = κοκκύμηλα, βράβυλα, plums, sloes (Seleuk. ap. Ath. 2,50 a).
Other forms: Also ἁμάδρυα κοκκύμηλα. Σικυώνιοι H., Phot. And ἄδρυα ...(see s.v.) Σικελοὶ δε ἄδρυα λέγουσι τὰ μῆλα. παρὰ δε ᾽Αττικοῖς ἀκρὸδρυα (plums) H and Ath.3, 83a. Also βάδρυα?, but see Fur. 221.
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: ἁμάδρυα not 'what belongs to a tree' (Strömberg, Wortstud. 43ff). Rather ἁμάδρυα through folk etymology from *ἀ-μάδρυα, a form with (non-IE) proth. vowel. μάδρυα is a Pre-Greek word. If βαδρυα is reliable, we have μ\/β, to which F may be added, to explain ἀδρυα (q.v.). On the names of plums Schrader-Nehring Reallex. 2, 181 f.
