Frisk Etymological English
Grammatical information: n.
Meaning: fruit-, onion-, eggshell etc., cover (Ar. V. 545 [lyr.], Arist., Thphr., AP).
Derivatives: κελύφιον (Arist.), κελύφανον id. (Lyc., Luc.) with κελυφανώδης shell-like (Thphr.); also κολύφανον φλοιός, λεπύριον H. (-ο- after κολεός a. o. (?), cf. Grošelj Razprave 2, 43).
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: On the neutral gender, which is rare in φ-derivations, cf. the synonymous σκῦτος, νάκος, δέρος a. o. As "envelop" κέλυφος has been connected with the group of καλύπτω. We saw that this verb is Pre-Greek, and the same is true of our word (note -υφ-). Cf. on κολέος. - Wrong Sütterlin IF 25, 67, Pisani Jb. f. kleinas. Forsch. 3, 150.
