|etymtx=ἀλίνδω<br />Grammatical information: v.<br />Meaning: [[make to roll]]; med. <b class="b2">roll (in the dust); roam</b> (Ar.).<br />Other forms: aor. <b class="b3">ἤλισα</b><br />Derivatives: <b class="b3">ἄλινδον δρόμον ἁρμάτων</b> EM, H. - <b class="b3">ἀλίνδησις</b> [[rolling]] (in the dust, of athletes; Hp.).<br />Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]<br />Etymology: Formation like <b class="b3">κυλινδέω</b>, <b class="b3">κυλίνδω</b>, which are also close in meaning, but their relation is unknown. One connects the word with <b class="b3">εἰλέω</b>, <b class="b3">ἴλλω</b> etc., comparing <b class="b3">Ϝάλη</b> (cod. <b class="b3">ὑάλη</b>) <b class="b3">σκώληξ</b> H. DELG assumes the root <b class="b2">*uel-</b> (Pok. 1140) which, lengthened with <b class="b2">-d-</b>, is seen in OS [[wealtan]], OHG [[walzan]]. Taillardat, REA 58, 1956, 191 n. 3, reconstructs <b class="b2">*uol-n-ed-mi</b>, with anaptyictic <b class="b2">-i-</b>. The <b class="b2">i-</b>epenthesis is without parallel, and an old nasal-present is improbable. Rather the suffix <b class="b2">-ind-</b> is non-IE. In that case the root could still be IE. But Fur. 130 n. 59 compares <b class="b3">καλινδέομαι</b> <b class="b2">id.</b> as a variant with <b class="b2">k-</b>; there are several variants with [[k]]\/zero among substr. words (the change <b class="b3">κ</b>\/zero cannot be explained from an IE laryngeal).
