Bq) it is usually (though with a certain reserve, WP. 2, 690) as IE [[σμύρις]] [[emery-powder]] connected with a Germ.-Celt. word for <b class="b2">smear, fat etc.</b>, e.g. OHG [[smero]] [[Schmer]], OIr. <b class="b2">smi(u)r</b> [[marrow]] (also Lat. [[medulla]]?); but this does not explain the Greek <b class="b2">-u-</b>; cf. [[μύραινα]] [which is a Pre-Greek word]. The isolated [[σμυρίζω]] [[anoint]] can, if not old, rest upon association with [[σμύρις]], [[σμύρνα]]. -- | ||
