Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: n.
Meaning: leek, Allium porrum, also of a kind of seaweed like leek (com., Thphr. ).
Compounds: Compp., e.g. πρασο-ειδής leek-like, from the colour (Hp., Arist.), θαλασσό-πρασον n. of a seaweed (Ath. Mech.).
Derivatives: 1. πράσ-ιος (Pl.), -ινος (Arist., LXX), -ιανός (M. Ant.), -ώδης (Thphr.) leek-colour, blue-green (Capelle RhM 101, 35); 2. -ῖτις f. n. of a stone, after the colour (Thphr.; Redard 59f.); 3. -ιον n. plant-name horehound, Marrubium etc. (Hp., Arist., Thphr.; Andrews ClassPhil. 56, 76); from this πρασίτης οἶνος? (v.l. in Dsc. 5, 48; Redard 98); 4. πρασιά, Ion. -ιή, mostly pl. -ιαί, f. garden-bed, prop. "leek-bed" (Od., hell.), pl. att. Demos and town in Laconia (Th.), with -ιάζομαι, -ιόομαι to be divided in beds (Aq.); Scheller Oxytonierung 67; 5. πρασίζω to be leek-coloured (Dsc.); 6. Πρασσαῖος m. nickname of a frog (Batr.; -σσ- hypocoristic; ?).
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: The traditional identification with Lat. porrum (since Fick and Curtius) would lead to IE *pr̥som; the remarkable maintenance of the -σ- reminds of δασύς (s.v. w. lit.) beside Lat. densus. For a loan from a common source (Schwyzer 58) factual considerations can be adduced; cf. Schrader-Nehring Reallex. 2, 710ff., to this Vycichl Sprache 9, 21 f. (Anatol.-Sum.[?]). Further lit. w. other hypotheses (to be rejected) in WP. 2, 84, Walde LEW2 and W. -Hofmann s. porrum. -- If the word is Pre-Greek, this may explain the -σ- (not in Furnée).

Middle Liddell

πρᾰ́σον, ου, τό,
a leek, Lat. porrum, Ar.

Frisk Etymology German

πράσον: {práson}
Grammar: n.
Meaning: Lauch, Allium porrum, auch von einem lauchähnlichen Meergras (Kom., Thphr. usw.).
Composita : Kompp., z.B. πρασοειδής lauchähnlich, von der Farbe (Hp., Arist.), θαλασσόπρασον N. eines Meergrases (Ath. Mech.).
Derivative: Davon 1. πράσιος (Pl. u.a.), -ινος (Arist., LXX usw.), -ιανός (M. Ant.), -ώδης (Thphr. u.a.) lauchfarben, blaugrün (Capelle RhM 101, 35); 2. -ῖτις f. N. eines Steins, nach der Farbe (Thphr.; Redard 59f.); 3. -ιον n. Pfl.name Andorn, Marrubium (Hp., Arist., Thphr. u.a.; Andrews ClassPhil. 56, 76); davon πρασίτης οἶνος?

Scherzname eines Froschs (Batr.; -σσ- hypokoristisch).
Etymology : Die herkömmliche Gleichsetzung mit lat. porrum (seit Fick und Curtius) ergibt idg. *pr̥som; die auffallende Bewahrung des -σ- erinnert an δασύς (s.d. m. Lit.) neben lat. densus. Für Entlehnung aus gemeinsamer Quelle (Schwyzer 58) können sachliche Gründe angeführt werden; vgl. Schrader-Nehring Reallex. 2, 710ff., dazu Vycichl Sprache 9, 21 f. (kleinas.-sum.[?]). Weitere Lit. m. anderen, abzulehnenden Hypothesen bei WP. 2, 84, Walde LEW2 und W. -Hofmann s. porrum.
