Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: f.
Meaning: black poplar (Il.).
Other forms: αἴγερος Com. Adesp. 1276 (Kock).
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: Connection with αἰγίλωψ, αἰγανέη is uncertain. Sommer IF 55, 260, pointing to the many non-IE words like αἴγιθος and names with Αἰγ- (Αἴγινα, Αἰγαί etc.) suggested pre-Greek origin. This would be confirmed by the form with -ε-.
