Greek (Liddell-Scott)

ἄδρυα: «οἱ στῦλοι ἀρότρου, δι’ ὧν ὁ ἱστοβοεὺς ἁρμόζεται·» προσέτι, «πλοῖα μονόξυλα, Κύπριοι· λέγονται δὲ καὶ οἱ ἐν τῷ ἀρότρῳ στῦλοι. Σικελοὶ δὲ ἄδρυα λέγουσι τὰ μῆλα· παρὰ δὲ Ἀττικοῖς ἀκρόδρυα», Ἡσύχ.

Frisk Etymological English

Meaning: πλοῖα μονόξυλα, Κύπριοι. Λέγονται δε καὶ οἱ ἐν τῳ̃ ἀρότρῳ στῦλοι. Σικελοὶ δε ἄδρυα λέγουσι τὰ μῆλα, παρὰ δε Ἀττικοῖς ἀκρόδρυα. H. Also ἄδρυα· οἱ στῦλοι (poles) ἀρότρου, δι' ὧν ὁ ἱστοβοεὺς ἁρμόζεται. H.
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin] [214]
Etymology: The first seems from *ἅ-δρυα (consisting) of one (single) tree, ἁ- < *sm̥- and δρῦς. For the meaning one single cf. μώνυχες, s.v. ὄνυξ. But in the third meaning it is a variant of μάδρυα, which is non-IE (s. there), so it is probably folk-etymology (compounds with δρυ- are rare and doubtful; see DELG s.v. δρῦς). (One might consider that the kernel of these stone-fruits, in some cases, easily falls in two parts, which resemble a canoe.) - On the second part nothing can be said. - On the third see μάδρυα.
