|etymtx=Grammatical information: n., pl.<br />Meaning: <b class="b2">weak, hairy skin, fleece</b> (Il.).<br />Other forms: <b class="b3">κῶς</b> Nikoch. 12; <b class="b3">κώεα</b>, <b class="b3">-εσι</b><br />Dialectal forms: Myc. kowo \/[[kowos]]\/.<br />Derivatives: Dimin. <b class="b3">κῴδ-ιον</b> (Att.), <b class="b3">-άριον</b> (com.); <b class="b3">κωδᾶς</b>, <b class="b3">-ᾶτος</b> m. <b class="b2">handler in fleeces</b> (pap.)<br />Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]<br />Etymology: Without certain etymology. Acc. to Bq from long grade <b class="b3">*κῶϜας</b>, IE. <b class="b2">*kōuǝs-</b> (as <b class="b3">γῆρας</b>; Schwyzer 349) from the s. <b class="b3">κύτος</b> discussed group [[cover]], [[conceal]], IE. (<b class="b2">s)keu-</b>; incorrect; doubts in WP. 2, 547 and Pok. 951. Not (with Curtius and Prellwitz) to <b class="b3">κεῖμαι</b>. - A full grade is what we expect, which would give <b class="b2">*koHu̯-H-s</b> or <b class="b2">*keh₃u̯-h₂-s</b>, which is rather strange; the inflection <b class="b3">-ας</b>, <b class="b3">-ε-</b> is also unusual: the -e- would fit with the Myc. nom., but then <b class="b3">-ας</b> is strange; it rather seems that a strange, i.e. Pre-Greek, word was adapted to Greek; so prob. the word is Pre-Greek.
