Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: n.
Meaning: curved poop of a ship, with its ornaments (Ο 717, Hdt.)
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: Not with Bechtel, Dial. 3, 285 that which prevents the destruction, with α privativum and φλάω. Rather Pre-greek, Hermann, Gött. Nachr. 1943, 1f. Cf. Winter, Prothet. Vokal 16. For -τον cf. ἄτρακτος. - From here Lat. aplustra, aplustria, -ōrum.

Middle Liddell


Lat. aplustre, the curved stern of a ship with its ornaments, Il., Hdt.

Frisk Etymology German

ἄφλαστον: {áphlaston}
Grammar: n.
Meaning: der Ausläufer des Schiffshecks, der Knauf am Schiffshinterteile (Ο 717, Hdt. 6, 114 u. a.)
Etymology: Nach Diels KZ 47, 209f. (m. Lit.) und Bechtel Dial. 3, 285 eig. "das was die Zertrümmerung verhütet oder verhüten soll", von α privativum und φλάω zertrümmern, was unzweifelhaft wie eine Volksetymologie klingt. Wohl eher mit Hermann Gött. Nachr. 1943, 1f. vorgriechisch. Verfehlt Winter Prothet. Vokal 16. — Daraus lat. aplustra, -ōrum.
