•de caña τὸν ἀσπαλιέα σπάσαι τὸν κάλαμον Ael.VH 1.5.
• Etimología: Quizá deriv. de *ἄσπαλος c. un final que recuerda a ἁλιεύς, rel. lat. squalus, aisl. hvalr, aprus. kalis, pero hay dificultad en cuanto al sent.

ἀσπαλιεύς, ο (Α)
ο ψαράς.
[ΕΤΥΜΟΛ. Τεχνικός όρος αβέβαιης προελεύσεως. Η λ. ασπαλιεύς θεωρήθηκε ως παράγωγο ενός τ. άσπαλος «ιχθύς» (Ησύχ.), έπειτα από αναλογική επίδραση του τ. αλιεύς. Υποστηρίχθηκε εξάλλου ότι ο τ. άσπαλος συνδέεται με τα λατ. squalus, ονομασία ενός μεγάλου ψαριού, αρχ. νορβ. hvalr «φάλαινα», αρχ. πρωσ. kalis «γλανός» (είδος ψαριού του γλυκού νερού)», πράγμα που εγείρει πολλές αντιρρήσεις. Προτιμότερο ίσως θα ήταν να θεωρηθεί η λ. άσπαλος μεσογειακής προελεύσεως. Τέλος η αρχαία υπόθεση ότι ο τ. προέρχεται από ανα- + σπάω οφείλεται σε παρετυμολογία].

Other forms: ἀσπάλους· τοὺς ἰχθύας. Ἀθαμᾶνες H. Cf. ἄσπαλον· σκύτος H. (unrelated?).
Derivatives: ἀσπαλία τοῦ ἁλιέως ἐργασία (H.) for *ἀσπαλιεία? Cf. ἀσπαλίσαι ἁλιεῦσαι, σαγηνεῦσαι (AB 183).
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]
Etymology: Cf. ἁλιεύς. Etym. unknown. Since Solmsen Wortforsch. 21 A. ἄσπαλος is compared with Lat. squalus name of a big fish, ON hvalr whale, which does not agree with Plato, Sph. 221c, who speaks of fishing with a line. Chantr. strangely doubts the connection ἀσπαλιεύς / ἄσπαλος. Quite improb. vW. - Rather with Huber, Comm. Aenip. 9, 21, a susbtr. word (but note that squalus too is non-IE).
