Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: n.
Meaning: poisonous plant, Aconitum but also others André, Lex. (Thphr.).
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: By the ancients derived from ἀκονιτί without dust, i.e. without struggle / fight (ἀκόνιτος Q. S.), i.e. invincible, because of its deadly effect. Semantically improbable. Cf. Jüthner Glotta 29, 73ff., Strömberg Pflanzennamen 150 A. 1. - Wrong Lagercrantz Eranos 35, 35f. S. also Kretschmer REIE 1, 171ff. - Fur. 121 connects κονή, κῶνος. A substr. word is anyhow prob.

Middle Liddell

[deriv. uncertain].]
aconite, a poisonous plant, Theophr.

Frisk Etymology German

ἀκόνιτον: {akónīton}
Grammar: n.
Meaning: Giftpflanze, Aconitum (Thphr., Dsk. u. a.).
Derivative: Davon ἀκονιτικός (X.).
Etymology: Nach den Alten von ἀκονιτί ‘ohne (vorangehendes) Bestauben’, d. h. ohne Kampf (ἀκόνιτος Q. S.), mühelos, also eig. unbezwingbar wegen der nicht zu überwindenden tödlichen Wirkung. Semantisch unbefriedigend. Versuche dem Inhalt des Wortes gerecht zu werden bei Jüthner Glotta 29, 73ff. mit Lit., Strömberg Pflanzennamen 150 A. 1. — Verfehlt Lagercrantz Eranos 35, 35f. S. auch Kretschmer REIE 1, 171ff.
