Frisk Etymological English
Grammatical information: n.
Meaning: plant name, Convolvulus oleofolius a. o. (Dsc.).
Derivatives: Dimin. δορυκνίδιον (Gal.).
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: No etymology. Fur. 183 compares στρύχνον, τρύχνον (Nic., Gal.; s.v), -ος (Theocr.); he remarked that after σ- we often find the voiceless variant; on the epenthesis cf. (183 n. 9) (σ)κόνυζα/κνύζα, κολυμβάς/κλύβατις, so he assumes that this word stands for *δρυκ(χ?)νιον (the vowel may have been α, with α > ο before -υ-).
