(after Herakleid. Mil. Pamphyl.; cf. Bechtel Dial. 2, 667), i. e. [[ἀϜέλιος]], points to an original <b class="b3">*σαϜέλιος</b>, differing from Skt. <b class="b2">sū́rya-</b> [[sun]] (beside <b class="b2">sū́ra-</b>) only in ablaut. Both languages have an <b class="b2">l-</b>stem, IE <b class="b2">*sāu̯el-</b>, <b class="b2">*sūl-</b> (cf. Skt. <b class="b2">súvar</b> n. < <b class="b2">*suu̯el</b>; full grade also in Lith. <b class="b2">sáulė</b>, Welsh [[haul]], zero grade e. g. in OIr. [[sūil]] [[eye]]) with a personifiing <b class="b2">i̯o-</b>suffix. The basis is a neutral heteroclitic <b class="b2">l-n-</b>stem, still seen in Av. [[hvarǝ]] (= Skt. <b class="b2">s(ú)var</b>), gen. [[xvǝng]] (< PIIr. <b class="b2">*su̯an-s</b>) and also seen in Germanic in the change between Goth. [[sauil]], ONord. OE. [[sōl]] and Goth. [[sunno]], OE. [[sunne]] [[sun]]. Further see W.-Hofmann and Ernout-Meillet s. [[sōl]], Vasmer Russ. et. Wb. s. <b class="b2">sólnice</b>. Connection with IE <b class="b2">*su̯el-</b> [[burn]] (s. [[εἵλη]]) is impossible. - In Etr. [[avil]] [[year]] Maresch <b class="b3">Μνημης χάριν</b> 2, 27f. proposes to see a loan from Gr. [[ἁϜέλιος]].
