Frisk Etymological English

-ηκος
Grammatical information: m.
Meaning: small stones, gravel in a riverbed, also coll. (Th., Str., J.).
Other forms: κόχλαξ, -ακος (LXX)
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: Formation in -ηξ as τράπηξ, νάρθηξ a. o. (cf. Björck Alpha impurum 261f.); The word has been connected (Zupitza Die german. Gutturale 207f.) with the Germ. word for hail, OHG hagal m., ONord. hagl n. etc. - After Güntert Labyrinth 28 n. 1 κάχληξ together with Lat. calx would have been taken from Aegaean. For foreign origin also Porzig ZII 5, 269f. The vowel-alternation points to a Pre-Greek word.

Frisk Etymology German

κάχληξ: -ηκος

Etymology : Bildung auf -ηξ wie τράπηξ, νάρθηξ u. a. (vgl. Björck Alpha impurum 261f.); ein angenommenes Grundwort *κάχλος ist von Zupitza Die german. Gutturale 207f. mit dem germ. Wort für Hagel, ahd. hagal m., anord. hagl n. usw. gleichgesetzt worden. — Nach Güntert Labyrinth 28 A. 1 wäre κάχληξ samt lat. calx aus dem Ägäischen entlehnt. Für fremden Ursprung auch Porzig ZII 5, 269f.
