κουρίξ [κουρά] adv., bij de haren.

Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: adv.
Meaning: Unknown. ἔρυσάν τέ μιν εἴσω κ. (χ 188), κ. ἑλκομένη (A. R. 4, 18), κ. αἰνυμένους (H.).
Origin: GR [a formation built with Greek elements]
Etymology: From κουρά after the adv. in -(ί)ξ (Schwyzer 620, Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 250), meaning uncertain. Acc. to Aristarch = τῆς κόμης ἐπιλαβόμενοι, i. e. (taking) at the hairs, at the crown, which is immediately understandable, though κουρά = `hair, crown' raises some doubts. Acc. to others (Bq s. v., WP. 2, 583) prop. `taking (the crown) as in shaving, what fits the usual meaning of κουρά better. - Wrong interpretations (κόρση, root of κάρα) in Bq.
