|etymtx=Grammatical information: adj.<br />Meaning: [[weak]] (Il.).<br />Derivatives: Denom. | |etymtx=Grammatical information: adj.<br />Meaning: [[weak]] (Il.).<br />Derivatives: Denom. [[ἀφαυροῦται]] (Erot., v. l. [[ἀμαυροῦται]]), as explnation of [[ἀμαλδύνεται]].<br />Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]<br />Etymology: Unknown. These words are often explained as contaminations (s. Frisk), for which there is no reason; it only testifies to our ignorance. Much more probably Fur. 330 compares <b class="b3">φαῦρος κοῦφος</b> H., [[φλαῦρος]] (with inserted [[λ]]?) and [[φαῦλος]]. I suggest that [[ἀμαυρός]] \/ [[μαυρός]] is also cognate (with [[μ]] \/ labial stop, e.g. [[λαφύσσω]] \/ [[λαμυρός]] etc., Fur. 224ff.; note the v.l. of the verb cited above). Note that <b class="b3">-αυρος</b> can hardly be IE (<b class="b2">-eh₂u-ro-</b>?). | ||
