Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: m. (f. Lyc. 401)
Meaning: quail, Coturnix vulgaris (Epich., IA.); also as a plant-name = στελέφουρος, Plantago Lagopus (Thphr.), cf. Strömberg Theophrastea 50.
Other forms: H. γόρτυξ, i.e. Ϝόρτυξ), -υγος (-υκος Philem. 245).
Compounds: As 1. member a.o. in ὀρτυγο-μήτρα f. "quail-mother", corncrake, Rallux crex (Cratin., Arist., LXX), after H. = ὄρτυξ ὑπερμεγέθης; s. Thompson Birds s.v., also Strömberg Wortstud. 23; as 2. member in φιλ-όρτυξ quail-loving (Pl. Ly. 212d).
Derivatives: Dimin. ὀρτύγιον n. (com.); Όρτυγία, -ίη f. old name of the island Delos and other islands (Od., Str.; Tréheux BCH 70, 560ff.), after that surname of Artemis (S.); patron. Όρτυγίων (Euboea).
Origin: IE [Indo-European] [1180] *u̯ort- quail; PGX [probably a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: Formed like the rare birdnames ἴβυξ, βαῖβυξ; cf. also κόκκυξ, πτέρυξ a.o. (Chantraine Form. 397, Schwyzer 498). With Ϝόρτυξ agrees except the ending Skt. (Ved.) vártikā f., later attested as vartaka- m. quail with the very productive ikā- and aka-suffixes. Note also MPers. vartak id.. The orig. form of the word cannot be reconstructed. WP. 1, 316 w. further lit., Specht Ursprung 139, 204 a. 214, Dehò Ist. Lomb. 91, 358. - Furnée 122 points out that both the suffix and the variation κ/γ points to a loan.

Frisk Etymology German

ὄρτυξ: (H. γόρτυξ, i.e. ϝόρτυξ), -υγος (-υκος Philem. 245)
{órtuks}
Grammar: m. (f. Lyk. 401)
Meaning: Wachtel, Coturnix vulgaris (Epich., ion. att.), auch als Pflanzenname = στελέφουρος, Plantago Lagopus (Thphr.), vgl. Strömberg Theophrastea 50.
Composita : Als Vorderglied u.a. in ὀρτυγομήτρα f. "Wachtelmutter", Wachtelkönig, Rallux crex (Kratin., Arist., LXX u.a.), nach H. = ὄρτυξ ὑπερμεγέθης; s. Thompson Birds s.v., auch Strömberg Wortstud. 23; als Hinterglied in φιλόρτυξ wachtelliebend (Pl. Ly. 212d).

Etymology : Wie die seltenen Vogelnamen ἴβυξ, βαῖβυξ gebildet; vgl. noch κόκκυξ, πτέρυξ u.a. (Chantraine Form. 397, Schwyzer 498). Zu ϝόρτυξ stimmt bis auf den Ausgang aind. (ved.) vártikā f., später belegt vartaka- m. Wachtel mit den sehr produktiven ikā- und aka-Suffixen. Die urspr. Form des Wortes läßt sich nicht wiederherstellen. WP. 1, 316 m. weiterer Lit., Specht Ursprung 139, 204 u. 214, Dehò Ist. Lomb. 91, 358. 1. ὀρύα (H. auch -ούα) f. Darm (Epich.). — Nicht sicher erklart.
