Menander, Monostichoi, 489

French (Bailly abrégé)

c. βόνασος.

Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: m.
Meaning: wisent (Arist.).
Origin: LW [a loanword which is (probably) not of Pre-Greek origin] Eur.
Etymology: Unexplained. Generally considered a loanword from an European language. - One wants to connect βόλινθος (q.v.), which is quite uncertain. Fur. 213 tries to connect Paonian μόναπος (q.v.), for which I see no basis.
