Spanish

English (Strong)

perhaps from eimi (to go) or hiemi (to send); rust (as if emitted by metals); also venom (as emitted by serpents): poison, rust.

English (Thayer)

ἰοῦ, ὁ (on its very uncertain derivation see Kreussler in Passow, under the word; Curtius, § 591; (Vanicek, p. 969));
1. poison (of animals): ἰός ἀσπίδων ὑπό τά χείλη αὐτῶν, the poison of asps is under their lips, spoken of men given to reviling and calumniating and thereby injuring others, γλῶσσα) μεστή ἰοῦ θανατηφόρου, Pindar down).

Frisk Etymological English

1. Meaning: one and the same
See also: s. ἴα.
2.
Grammatical information: m.
Meaning: arrow (Il.; Trümpy Fachausdrücke 67).
Other forms: pl. ἰοί, also ἰά (Υ 68; on the change of genus Schwyzer-Debrunner 37)
Compounds: As 1. member e. g. in ἰο-δόκος receiving arrows (φαρέτρη Hom.), f. quiver (A. R.); on ἰο-χέαιρα s. v.
Origin: IE [Indo-European] [301] *isu- arrow
Etymology: From *ἰσϜ-ο- and except for the thematic vowel (Schwyzer 472) identical with Skt. íṣu-, Av. išu- arrow (Curtius 402; further lit. in Bq). Meier-Brügger, MSS 49 (19880 75-77, takes ι᾽ά as ntr. pl. from *ιhυ, and ἰός as a sec. sg. derived from it.
3.
Grammatical information: m.
Meaning: poison (Pi., trag., Plu.).
Compounds: As 1. member e. g. in ἰο-βόρος poison eating (Nic., Opp.);
Derivatives: ἰώδης poisonous (Rom. empire).
Origin: IE [Indo-European] [1134] *uiso- or *uiso-, *uiHso-? fluidity, slime, poison
Etymology: Old word for poison, often replaced by euphemistic expressions (φάρμακον, Lat. venēnum, Germ. gift, French poison etc.), but still present in the languages of the margin, i. e. Indo-Iranian and Italo-Celtic: Skt. viṣá- n., Av. vīša-, Lat. vīrus n. (genus sec.) = Irisch , IE *u̯īso-; on the quantity cf. e. g. the cases in Fraenkel Nom. ag. 1, 91. Beside these thematic forms there is Av. viš- id. and, with deviating meaning, Skt. viṣ- faeces. Thus Lat. vīrus also means tough fluidity, slime, sap; cf. also Welsh gwyar blood and 4. ἰός. As IE *u̯īs(o)- is prob. partly a tabuistic substitution, one considered connection with a verb, Skt. veṣati flow out (gramm.), with a Germ. river-name as Wisura Weser, Vistula Weichsel (Krahe Beitr. z. Namenforschung 4, 38ff.); however, these Old European river names of Krahe are in general pre-, i.e. non-IE. - Lit. bei Bq, WP. 1, 243f., W.-Hofmann s. vīrus.
4.
Grammatical information: m.
Meaning: rust on iron, verdigris on copper, bronze (Thgn., Hp., Pl., Theoc., SIG 284, 15 [Chios IVa]).
Derivatives: ἰώδης rust-coloured (Hp., Thphr.).
Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
Etymology: Given the changing meaning of IE *u̯īs(o)- (s. on 3. ἰός) our word has been identified with it (Fick 23, 242). It could be due to different uses according to occupation; note, that ἰός rust as opposed to ἰός poison was used also in prose, what may point to a stilistic differentiation.

Composita : Als Vorderglied z. B. in ἰοδόκος Pfeile aufnehmend (φαρέτρη Hom.), -η f. Köcher (A. R. u. a.); zu ἰοχέαιρα s. bes.
Etymology : Aus *ἰσϝο- und bis auf den erweiternden Themavokal (Schwyzer 472) mit aind. íṣu-, aw. išu- Pfeil identisch (Curtius 402; weitere Lit. bei Bq).

Meaning: Gift (Pi., Trag., auch Plu. u. a.).
Composita : Als Vorderglied z. B. in ἰοβόρος ‘(wie) Gift verzehrend’ (Nik., Opp.);
Derivative: Ableitung ἰώδης giftig (Kaiserzeit).
Etymology : Altes Wort für Gift, oft durch euphemistische Ausdrücke ersetzt (φάρμακον, lat. venēnum, germ. gift, frz. poison usw.), aber noch in den Randsprachen, d. h. Indoiranischen und Italokeltischen vorhanden: aind. vĭṣá- n., aw. vī̆ša-, lat. vīrus n. (Genus sekundär) = irisch , idg. *u̯ī̆so-; zum Quantitätswechsel vgl. z. B. die Fälle bei Fraenkel Nom. ag. 1, 91. Neben diesen thematischen Formen steht im Indoiranischen das einsilbige aw. viš- ib. und, mit abweichender Bedeutung, aind. viṣ- faeces. Ähnlich bedeutet lat. vīrus auch zähe Flüssigkeit, Schleim, Saft; vgl. noch kymr. gwyar Blut und 4. ἰός. Da idg. *u̯ī̆s(o)- seinerseits wahrscheinlich eintabuistisches Ersatzwort ist, kommt weitere Beziehung zu einem Verb, aind. veṣati zerfließen (Gramm.; mehrdeutig véṣantīr als Beiwort der Ströme RV. 1, 181, 6), wozu u. a. germ. Flußnamen wie Wisura Weser, Vistula Weichsel (zuletzt Krahe Beitr. z. Namenforschung 4, 38ff.), ernstlich in Betracht. — Lit. bei Bq, WP. 1, 243f., W.-Hofmann s. vīrus.

4.
{īós}
Grammar: m.
Meaning: Grünspan, Rost (Thgn., Hp., Pl., Theok., Dsk., Plu., SIG 284, 15 [Chios IVa]).
Derivative: Davon ἰώδης grünspanfarbig, rostfarbig (Hp., Thphr., Kall. Hist., Dsk., Plu. u. a.).
Etymology : Angesichts der wechselnden Bedeutung von idg. *u̯ī̆s(o)- (s. zu 3. ἰός) liegt es unzweifelhaft am nächsten, mit Fick 23, 242 ιός Grünspan, Rost mit ἰός Gift zu identifizieren. Es kann sich dabei um berufsmäßige Verschiedenheiten des Sprachgebrauchs handeln; zu bemerken ist noch, daß ἰός Grünspan, Rost im Gegensatz zu ἰός Gift seit alters auch in der Prosa benutzt wurde, was auch für eine stilistische Differenzierung spricht.
