κορίαννον
οὐκ ἐπιλογιζόμενος ὅτι ἅμα μὲν ὀδύρῃ τὴν ἀναισθησίαν, ἅμα δὲ ἀλγεῖς ἐπὶ σήψεσι καὶ στερήσει τῶν ἡδέων, ὥσπερ εἰς ἕτερον ζῆν ἀποθανούμενος, ἀλλ᾿ οὐκ εἰς παντελῆ μεταβαλῶν ἀναισθησίαν καὶ τὴν αὐτὴν τῇ πρὸ τῆς γενέσεως → you do not consider that you are at one and the same time lamenting your want of sensation, and pained at the idea of your rotting away, and of being deprived of what is pleasant, as if you are to die and live in another state, and not to pass into insensibility complete, and the same as that before you were born

Frisk Etymological English
Grammatical information: n.
Meaning: coriander, Coriandrum sativum; also κορίανδρον (Gloss.), dissimilated κολίανδρον (Gp., Sch.); κορίαμβλον (H.); (Anakr., Kom., Thphr.)
Other forms: shortened κόριον (Hp., Nic., pap.)
Dialectal forms: Myk. korijadono, koria₂dana = \/korihadnon\/.
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: Mediterranean. The Form -ανδρον is prob. folketymological, as is -αμβλον (after ἀμβλύς?); the short form κόριον with allusion to κόρις bug (Strömberg Pflanzennamen 61?; because of the stench?). Cf. Hatzidakis Glotta 2, 297f. Szemerényi, Gnomon 43 (1971) 674 points to the comparison with Akkad. huri'anu id.; but this does not explain the Myc. -d-. The Myc. -dn- points to a Pre-Greek word. (I doubt about the folk-etym. supposed by Frisk.)
Middle Liddell
κορίαννον, ου, τό,
coriander, Ar. [deriv. uncertain]
Frisk Etymology German
κορίαννον: (Anakr., Kom., Thphr.),

Grammar: n.
Meaning: Koriander, Coriandrum sativum
Etymology : Unerklärtes Mittelmeerwort; die Form -ανδρον ist offenbar volksetymologisch, ebenso -αμβλον (nach ἀμβλύς?); die Kurzform κόριον mit Anspielung auf κόρις Wanze (Strömberg Pflanzennamen 61; wegen des Geruchs). Vgl. Hatzidakis Glotta 2, 297f.
