|etymtx=-ύος<br />Grammatical information: f.<br />Meaning: [[turtle]] (Ant. Lib. 32, 2, H.).<br />Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]<br />Etymology: For the formation cf. the synonymous <b class="b3">χέλυς</b>, <b class="b3">ἐμύς</b>. Orig. prob. foreign word, but connected with <b class="b3">κλέμμα</b> (<b class="b3">κλέπτω</b>) because turtles can hide their body partly or completely under the armour(?) . Cf. Güntert Reimwortbildungen 144: cross of <b class="b3">ἐμύς</b> and <b class="b3">*κλωμός</b> = Skt. <b class="b2">kūrmá-</b> [[turtle]] (IE?; cf. Mayrhofer KEWA s. v.) with <b class="b3">-μμ-</b> from <b class="b3">κλέμμα</b>. - Far-fetched suggestion. Fur. 131 compares <b class="b3">κρέμυς</b> <b class="b2">a fish with a very hard head</b> and <b class="b3">χρέμυς ὁ ὀνίσκος ἰχθύς</b> H.; this confims that the word is Pre-Greek. How do we know about a connection with <b class="b3">κλέμμα</b>? On geminates Fur. 387, where this word can be added. | |||
