|ftr='''ἄκορνα''': {ákorna}<br />'''Grammar''': f.<br />'''Meaning''': Distelart (Thphr.).<br />'''Etymology''' : Strömberg Wortstudien 17 vergleicht [[κόρνος]], nach H. sizilisch für [[κεντρομυρσίνη]], und [[σκόρνος]]· [[κόρνος]], [[μυρσίνη]] τὸ [[φυτόν]]; der Name sei volksetymologisch auf ἀκ- [[spitz]] bezogen worden. Von [[ἄκορνα]] stammt nach Strömberg ἀκορνός ([[ὀκορνός]]) = [[ἀττέλεβος]], [[πάρνοψ]] (H., Phot.), weil die Heuschrecken unter den Disteln leben und sich von diesen nähren. Ebenso von [[κόρνος]] [[κόρνοψ]] [[Art Heuschrecke]], vgl. auch [[ἀκανθίας]] von [[ἄκανθα]]. Zum Anlaut vgl. noch Winter Prothet. Vokal 12.<br />'''Page''' 1,55
