The database represents the updated text of J. Pokorny's “Indogermanisches Etymologisches Wörterbuch”, scanned and recognized by George Starostin (Moscow), who has also added the meanings. The database was further refurnished and corrected by A. Lubotsky. Pokorny's text is given practically unchanged (only a few obvious typos were corrected), except for some rearrangement of the material. The numbers in the lemmata are given after the root (e.g. Pokorny's 1. bher- appears as bher-1) because automatic alphabetization would otherwise too much affect the order of the lemmata.
Root / lemma: abhro- (*hebhro-)
English meaning: strong, mighty
German meaning: 'stark, heftig'
Note: The Root / lemma: apelo- : `strength' seems related to Root / lemma: abhro- (*hebhro-): `strong, mighty' [the shift l > r].
Material: to Mir. Prefix abor-, cymr. afr- `very much'; got. abrs `get strong, violent', adv. abraba `very much', bi-abrjan `before were astonished beside oneself', aisl. Prefix afar- `very much'; ill. VN Α῎βροι, thrak. PN Α᾽βρο-.
Maybe illyr. VN Α῎βροι, thrak. PN Α᾽βρο - : alb. (*Α῎βροι) afronj `bring close, squeeze', afër `near' similar to formations of lett. blaîzît `squeeze, clash, hit' : Old Church Slavic blizь, blizъ Adv. `nigh, near' (eigentl. `adjacent').
Here maybe got. aba (n- stem) `husband'.
Note:
The root abhro- :'strong, mighty' is related to the cult of fertility hence the goddess of love, beauty and sexual rapture' Αφροδίτη Aphrodite'. The name of Aphrodite derived from Gr. ἀφρός `sea foam' + Τι ̄ τα ̃ νες `titaness'. The name of Aphrodite is also related to Root / lemma: abō(n) : (ape, aquatic demon) and to Root / lemma: ab- : (water, river) [see below].
In Greek mythology, Aphrodite is the goddess of love, beauty and sexual rapture. According to Hesiod, she was born when Uranus (the father of the gods) was castrated by his son Cronus. Cronus threw the severed genitals into the ocean which began to churn and foam about them. From the ἀφρός `aphros ("sea foam")' arose Aphrodite, and the sea carried her to either Cyprus or Cythera. Hence she is often referred to as Kypris and Cytherea.
The name of Aphrodite is related to PIE Root / lemma: (enebh-2): nebh-, embh-, m̥bh- : (wet, damp; water; clouds) Old Indian abhrá- m. (*m̥bhros), av. awra- n.

Root / lemma: abh- (*hebh-)
English meaning: quick, abrupt
German meaning: `rasch, heftig'
Note: alter r/n- stem
Material: Gr. ἄφαρ `straightway, forthwith, at once, quickly, presently' (old abstract noun `quickness'), for what, nevertheless, probably at first ἄφνω, ἄφνως `suddenly'.
Here at most Old Church Slavic abьje `straight away, directly', but uncertainly Old Indian ahnāya `directly, straight away, instantly, speedily' (rather to áhar, áhan- `day' p. 7).

Root / lemma: abō(n) (*hebō-)
English meaning: ape, *water demon
German meaning: `Affe'
Note: (kelt. neologism). The animal introduced by traveling merchants can have been named by the Celts with the name of her aquatic demon (see above ab-).
Material: Hes. ἀβράνας Κελτοὶ τοὺς κερκοπιθήκους is maybe ἀββάνας (Akk. Pl.) to read and still before the consonatic mutation in Germ. stubby; hence, in. api m. `Monkey, gate', as. apo, ahd. affo m., affa, affin f., ags. apa m. `Monkey', ačech. opice comes aruss. opica from the Germ.

Root / lemma: ab-
English meaning: water, river
German meaning: `Wasser, Fluß'
Note:
From Root / lemma: akʷā- (more properly ǝkʷā): ēkʷ- : `water, river' [through the shift -gʷ- > -b-, -kʷ- > -p- attested in Greek, Illyrian and Celtic languages] derived Root / lemma: ab- : (water, river) and Root / lemma: ā̆p-2 : `water, river'.
Material: Lat. amnis f., late m. c (*abnis); air. ab (*aba) Gen. abae `river', besides abann, cymr. afon, orn. bret. auon, gall. brit. FlN Abona, derived cymr. afanc `beaver, water demon, dwarf', to mir. abac (*abankos) `beaver, dwarf', schweiz.-frz. avañ `pasture' (*abanko-); lett. FlN Abava.
The West German FlN in -apa, nhd.-affa, probably go back partly to usually lost westgerm. *ap-(idg. *ab-), partly in ven.-ill. ap- (idg. *ap-).

Root / lemma: ades-, ados- (*heĝh-)
English meaning: sort of cereal
German meaning: `Getreideart, Spelt'
Grammatical information: n.
Material: Lat. ador, -ō̆ris n. `a kind of grain, spelt', maybe in got. atisk (*ades-ko-) `sowing field', probably m. as ahd. ezzisca Pl. `sowing', mhd. dial. Esch, schweiz. dial. Aesch, `field entrance of a village'; toch. AB āti `grass' [ B atiyo (f.pl.) `grass' (Adams 9)] (differently Pedersen Toch. 641). about gr. ἀθήρ `an ear of corn' see under andh-.
Perhaps Armenian: hat `grain', Hittite: hattar n. `cereal'
Note:
It seems Root / lemma: ades-, ados- : `sort of cereal' evolved from an older root *heĝh- `a kind of grain'. This root was suffixed with common -ska formant in germ. branch Germanic: *at-isk-a-, while in Anatolian branch the root was suffixed with common PIE -tar formant. The old laryngeal (centum ḫ- > a-, e- : satem ḫ- > s-) was lost except in hitt. and arm. Clearly germ. tongues borrowed the cognate from a reduced lat. (*hattar-) adŏris > Germanic: *at-isk-a-.
Finally zero grade in alb. (*adō̆ris) *dris, drizë `thorny plant', (*dris) drithë `grain' where the lat. -is ending has been solidified.
The surprise is the phonetic mutation -ĝh- > -d- found only in av. - illyr.- balt. languages.

The name of the primordial hill in Egyptian mythology, the first mountain that raised from the ocean. The mountain god was borrowed by Hitties who called the dreaming god Upelluri. Greeks received Atlas from Hittites. Atlas `*mountain probably named after the rivers streaming there': Α῎τλας, -αντος m. `Atlas' (Od., Hes., Hdt., A. etc.), name of a God who carries the columns of the sky; originally probably name of Arcadian mountains which were spread then by the epic in general and especially (by Ionic seafarers) was transferred to the Atlas Mountains in West Africa, see Solmsen Wortforsch. 24; about Atlas as a personification of the world axis Tièche Mus.

Root / lemma: agʷh-no-s (*hegʷh-no-s)
English meaning: `lamb'
German meaning: `Lamm'
Note: (z. T. also *agʷnos)
It seems that from Root / lemma: aĝ- : `to lead, *drive cattle' derived Root / lemma: agʷh-no-s : `lamb'.
Material:
Note:
The old laryngeal centum ḫ- > a-, e- : satem ḫ- > s- in PIE; only alb. and umbr. and Slavic preserved the old laryngeal through alb. ḫ- > k- phonetic mutation.
alb. geg. kinxh, tosk (*ḫegh-) qengj `lamb' : umbr. habina(f) `of a lamb' : lat. haedīnus `of a kid' : Old Church Slavic: (j)agnę `lamb' [common alb. gh- > gl- > gj- : lith. gh- > dz- phonetic mutation].
Gr. (*agʷnos, abnos) ἀμνός derived from an earlier *abnos `lamb' [common gr. kʷ > p, gʷ > b phonetic mutation, later b > mb > m common illyr.-gr. phonetic mutation]
gr. ἀμνός m. f., ἀμνή f. `lamb';
lat. agnus, - ī, fem.-a `lamb' (agnīle `sheep stable', lacking suffix affinity with Old Church Slavic jagnilo `place where the sheep lamb', a derivative of the verb jagniti `to lamb'); air. ūan cymr. oen, acorn. oin, bret. oan `lamb' (urk. *ognos with -gn- would have derived from *-gʷhn-, not-*gʷn-, in spite of Pedersen KG. I 109-bn-;
o- probably influence from *ou̯is `sheep'); ags. ēanian, engl. to yean `to lamb', ndl. oonen ds. (from *aunōn from *auna- = idg. *agʷhno-); Old Church Slavic (j)agne ̨ `lamb' (with formants -et- broadened around popular names of young animals), (j)agnьcь `lambkins' contain full gradation. Or is placed idg. *ōgʷ(h)no- : to *ǝgʷ(h)no-
Through the Germ. and Kelt. presumed voiced-aspirated also would underlie the basis of lat. and slav. forms, so that gr. ἀμνός (at first from *ἀβνός) remains the only dependable indication in voiced-nonaspirated gʷ. If umbr. habina(f) `of a lamb' could be explained from intersection from *hēdīno- = lat. haedīnus `of a kid' and *abnīno- = lat. agninus `of a lamb; f. as subst., lamb's flesh', however, would point umbr. b to voiced-nonaspirated. But maybe it has become gʷh in Osk.-Umbr. to b.
Note:
Celtic Illyrian concordances: common illyr. -gʷ- > -b-, -d- : alb. -gʷ- > -d- phonetic mutation.
Lat. avillus `lambkin' because of the suffix formation not to ovis, but from *agʷhnelos.
Note:
[common lat. - Italic gw- > v- phonetic mutation] Lat. avillus (*abillus) `lambkin' : rum. (*agʷenus) ageamiu `lamb'.

Root / lemma: ai-dh-, i-dh-, nas. i-n-dh- (*heu̯i-ĝh-)
English meaning: to burn
Note:
Common illyr. -ĝh- > -dh- phonetic mutation
German meaning: `brennen, leuchten'
Material: Old Indian inddhḗ `inflamed, is aroused' (pass. idhyáte, Perf. īdhḗ, part. Perf. Pass iddhá-ḥ), indhana-m `lighting'.
Gr. αἴθω `lights, burns' (αἰθόμενος), αἴθων, αἶθοψ `igneously, sparkling', ἰθαίνεσθαι θερμαίνεσθαι Hes., hylleisch αἰδῶσσα αἴθουσα'loggia'; changing by ablaut κακ-ιθής Hes. `ravenously' (W. Schulze KZ. 29, 269 = Kl. Schr. 329). common gr.-illyr. -ks- > -ss- phonetic mutation
o-St.:gr. αἶθος m. `fire' (αἰθός `burntly') = Old Indian ēdha-ḥ ̣m. `Firewood' = ags. ād, ahd. mhd. eit m. `Glow, pyre': zero grade probably norw. schwed. id `leuciscus idus' (a bright carp kind), cf nhd. dial. aitel `leuciscus cephalus' as the `shining'; besides u- stem *aidhu- in gall. VN Aedui, air. áed `fire', also as MN; lat. aedēs `a dwelling of the gods, a sanctuary, a temple', ursprüngl. `the domestic stove', also aedis = maked. ἄδις ἐσχάρα Hes.
From the verbal adjective in -to- derived probably lat. aestās, - ātis `warm season, summer' (from *aisto-tāt-, idg. *aidh-to-); aestus, - ūs (from *aidh-tu-) `heat, glow, surf', aestuāre `cook, surge, roar';
Maybe alb. (*aestā-, *vesna, *vièsientá) vjeshta `autumn, harvest time (long summer)': Go. asans `harvest time, summer' [common alb. prothetic v- before bare initial vowels] hence Vesta `goddess of hearth and its sacred fire' was an Illyrian goddess, also alb. vatra (*vas-tra) `hearth' with -tre suffix.
agerm. MN Aistomōdius (`with quick-tempered courage'), ags. āst f. `dried stove', engl. oast `drying room, drying loft'.
r- formants: gr. αἰθήρ `the upper air' (maked. ἀδῆ), αἴθρα `the cheerful sky' (maked. ἀδραιά), αἴθριος `brightly, cheerfully (from the weather)', for what changing by ablaut ἰθαρός'cheerfully', Old Indian vīdhrá- (=vi-idh-rá́-) ds.
l- formants: gr. αἰθάλη, αἴθαλος `soot', maked. ἄδαλος; under acceptance of a development from `shining, appearing' `too apparently' one puts a little bit constrainedly here ags. īdel `vain, pointless, trifling', ahd. ītal, nhd. eitel.
In idg. *aidh-lo- is based germ. ail- in ags. ǣlan `burn' to āl n. `Flame', and in ags. ǣled m., aisl. eldr (Gen. elds) `fire, flame'. From different development-grading ags. ǣled are borrowed cymr. aelwyd, bret. oaled `from fire, stove' (M. Förster Themse 4872). Mir. āel `lime' could have originated from *aidhḫlo-. However, could germ. and kelt. words be formed also directly by the root 4. 4. ā̆i- with -lo-suffix.
s-formants: es-St. gr. αἴθος n. `Glow, fire' = Old Indian ḗdhas- n. `Firewood'.
Continuing formation: aisl eisa f. (*aidhḫsḫōn) `fire', norw. `Hearth', mnd. ēse f. `chimney, fire stove' (however, ahd. essa `chimney, hearth' see under ā̆s- `burn'); av. aēsma m. `Firewood' (*aidh-s-mo-, cf without s Old Indian idhmáḫḥ m. ds.); in addition balt. *aismiā in lit. íesmė `firewood'; lit. aistrà f. `passion'; ačech. niestějě (fem. Pl.) `stove', later nístěj (with n- suggestion by wrong decomposition of the connections *vъnḫěstěję, vъn-ěstějachъ, Berneker 275) from *aidh-s-to; in addition zro grades *idh-s-to- in slov. istė́je, stė́je Pl. `stove hole'; to Johansson IF. 19, 136 also Old Indian iṣ̌ṭakā `of burnt bricks', av. ištya- n. `brick, (backed brick)'.
In *indh- goes back: alb. geg. idhunɛ, tosk. idhëtë `bitter', tosk. idhɛrím `bitterness, anger, irritation', hį̄dhitë Pl. `nettle' (Jokl studies 29).

German meaning: `Eiche'
Material: Gr. αἰγίλωψ `an oaken kind' (see under), presumably also κράτ-αιγος, κρατ-αιγών `an uncertain type of tree' (possibly `hard oak').
The outcome from αἰγίλωψ appears λώψ λώψ χλαμύς Hes., cf . λωπίον, λώπη, λοπός `bowl, bark' and Plin. n. h. 16, 6, 13 aegilops fert pannos arentes ...non in cortice modo, verum et e ramis dependentes, Kretschmer Gl. 3, 335.
Anord. eik (conservative stem) f. `oak', as. ēk, ags. āc (engl. oak), ahd. eih, mhd. eich, eiche, nhd. Eiche;
All other cognates are dubious: gr. ἄιγῑρος (more properly than αἴγειρος, s. Fick BB. 30, 273) possibly'aspen' could be created as' tree trembler, (*oak shaker)' also derivative like οἰκτί̄ρω from *αἰγί̄ρω `swing, tremble' (: *aig- `move violently');
lat. aesculus `(mountain oak), the winter or Italian oak' (*aig-sklos) is still unclear after its formation, maybe Mediterranean word.

Root / lemma: aig-3
English meaning: to move swiftly, swing, vibrate
German meaning: `(sich) heftig bewegen, schwingen, vibrieren'
Material: Old Indian ējati `stirs, moves, trembles', ējathuḫḥ ̣ `the quake of the earth', vic̨vamējaya- `making everything shake', nasal present iŋgati, iŋgate `stirs, moves', Kaus. iŋgáyati `sets in motion, touches, shakes', udiŋgayati `swings', samiŋgayati `sets in shaking movement' (form relation like between αἴθω: Old Indian indhate);
from Gr. here very probably αἶγες τα κύματα. Δωριεῖς Hes. (also Artemidor Oneirokrit. 2, 12: και γὰρ τὰ μεγάλα κύματα αἶγας ἐν τῇ συνηθείᾳ λέγομεν), αἰγιαλός'strands' (probably from arise the connection ἐν αἰγι ἁλόs `in the surf of the sea'; differently Bechtel Lexil. 16), αἰγίς `gale, storm cloud;
the shield of Zeus' (probably originally understood as the storm cloud shaken by Zeus,'thunderstorm shield'), καταιγίς `gust of wind moving down suddenly' from καταιγίζειν `storm, attack down, drive off' (from πνοαὶ ῎Αρεος, ἄνεμοι, θάλασσα), ἐπαιγίζειν `attack near, thrust near'; probably also αἰγανέη'lance' (on the grounds of *αἴγανον `the catapults' or'projectile'); presumably also αἴγλη'shine', from the flickerof the light and the warm air to the south; common gr.-illyr. -ks- > -ss- phonetic mutation
The very name of the root lemma for goat derived from the shield of Zeus which after the crash with clouds created thunderstorm. Since the shield of Zeus was covered with goat's skin the very name of the goat was stamped with the name of the cloud shaker.
Hence Root / lemma: aiĝ- : (goat) is identical with Root / lemma: aig-3 : (to move swiftly, move violently, swing, vibrate).
in addition germ. name of the squirrel: ahd. eihhurno, eihhorn, mhd. eichorn (nhd. Eichhorn with support of Eiche `oak' and Horn `horn', ags. ācweorna,-wern, mnd. ēkeren, ēkhorn, anord. īkorne (īk old ablaut or impairment from aik- in addition), neunorw. also eikorne, aschwed. ēkorne (was based on the concept `flexible, swinging itself from branch to branch'; in earliest with one to *u̯er-, u̯ēu̯er- `squirrel, weasel' the belonging second limb: *aik-werna); aksl Old Church Slavic igrъ, igra `play', igrati, perfective vъzigrati `σκιρτα̃ν, hop, jump, dance' (from *ьgrа; lit. with Berneker 422).

ak̂-men-/-mer-

6. With r-formant:
ak̂er-, ok̂er-
Note:
Many Germanic cognates prove that the real roots were the labiovelars: ak̂ʷer-, ok̂ʷer-
Air. a(i)cher `sharp (from the hoist)', because of the Gen. Sg. Akeras (PN in the Ogham) not lat. Lw .; abret. acer-uission `with sharp fingers' (biss), ocerou Pl. `sharpened', acymr. ar-ocrion gl. atrocia; lit. ašerỹs, ešerỹs `river perch'; pol. dial. jesiora (from *aserā); anord. ǫgr ds. (from proto germ. *agura-, idg. *ok̂r̥-o-), westnorw. augur (from *ǫ̣gurr, newer development from ǫgr), influenced from auga `eye',
From the extension of Root / lemma: ak̂-, ok̂- (*hekʷ-): `sharp; stone' with r-formant derived the labiovelars: ak̂ʷer-, ok̂ʷer- whose zero grade produced alb. (*k̂ʷerna), gurrë `stream' [common alb. rn > rr shift], (*k̂ʷer-) gur `stone';
Here also maybe the name of the maple (due to the pointed leaf sections):
lat. acer, -eris n. `the maple tree or maple wood' (from acer arbor became vlat. acerabulus, Meyer-Lübke REW. 93), dän. ær ds. (germ. *ahira-); nhd. dial. Acher ds. (germ. *ahura-);
gr. ἄκαστος ἡ σφένδαμνος Hes. (*ἄκαρστος, meaning as πλατάνιστος beside πλάτανος; to stem compare also ἄκαρνα δάφνη Hes.); gallo Rome. *akaros, *akarnos `maple' (Hubschmied RC. 50, 263 f.); ahd. ahorn `maple'
(from schweiz. and other oral kinds would devop certainly ā -, however, ā -would have arisen also of people's etymological distortion, like mnd. ānhorn, ālhorn;ahorn (idg. *ak̂rno-) is up to the declension class = ἄκαρνα, while lat. acernus `of maple' is syncopated from *acer-inos; however, that n has probably also arisen from the former adjective material developing formants -no- and not from r/n-stem by accumulation of both elements.
Rather that counts for gr. ἄκορνα (*-ι̯α) `yellow thistle kind' ἄκανος ds., maybe here also ἄκορος `Kalmus', ἄκορον `his spicy root', compare with other forms still ἄκινος f. `odoriferous flower', ὤκιμον `basil' (if here suitablly, named after the sharp smell?).
ak̂ri-, ak̂ro-
Old Indian áśrih ̣ `corner, edge, border', catur-aśra-ḥ ̣ `square'; gr. ἄκρος `sharply', ἄκρον, ἄκρα, ἄκρις `point, mountaintops' (also in ἀκροάομαι as `have sharp hearing, sharpen the ear', and ἀκρίς, -ίδος `grasshopper', short form for ἀκροβατοῦσα `tiptoe', ἀκρίζουσα; ἀκρεμών `point of the boughs', see to the formation Brugmann Grdr. II2 1, 241);
lat. (to ā see Frisk IF. 56, 113 f.) ācer, ācris,-e (alat. ācra, -um) `sharp, piercing, penetrating, cutting, irritating, pungent', osk. akrid `sharply, fiercely, keenly', umbr. peracri- `fat, plump, corpulent' (= lat. perācer `very sharp', compare to meaning gr. ἄκρος, also `uppermost, excellent', and ἀκμαῖoς), lat. acerbus `acidic, sad, harsh, bitter, unripe' (from *ăcri-bho-s); compare gall. AXPOTALVS `with high forehead', air. ēr `high' (from *akros); lit. ašrùs, aštrùs, alit. aštras, Old Church Slavic ostrъ `sharp' (t - interpolated wording).
Maybe alb. geg. (*akri) hakërronj `threaten, frighten'.
ok̂ri-, ok̂ro-
With shading o-: gr. ὄκρις f. `sharp' mountain point, corner, edge', alat. ocris m. `rough mountain', lat. mediocris `average, mediocre, of middling size, medium, middling, moderate, ordinary', actually `to be found halfway up' (here ablaut could be displayed in the compound like in extorris: terra, meditullium: tellūs), Ocriculum, Interocrea, ocrea `splint, a greave, legging', umbr. ocar, ukar, Gen. ocrer `mountain, castle mountain', marr. ocres `a mountain, mount, range of mountains', mir. och(a)ir `corner, edge', from it borrows cymr. ochr `edge'.
To the heteroclite paradigm *ak̂-r-(g), *ak̂-n-es (also the i- stem *ak̂i- can have combined with it) compare above ak̂men/mer-, Pedersen KZ. 32, 247, Johansson Beitr. 9, Petersson IF. 24, 269 ff.; as notable the apposition appears thereof from gr. Κράγος `name of different mountains', ᾽Ακράγ-ας the'Agrigentum' which might have signified originally `rocks, stones'.
7. With s-formant:

It seems that Root / lemma: akʷā- (more properly ǝkʷā): ēkʷ- : (water, river) derived from Root / lemma: ak̂-, ok̂- : (sharp; stone).

The affiliation from hitt. e-ku-uz-zi (ekuzi) `drinks', 3. Pl. a-ku-wa-an-zi, seems not unlikely. Moreover also toch. AB yok-tsi `drink'. Air. oiche `water' does not exist; cymr. aig `sea' is neologism to eigion from lat. oceanus.
alb. (*oceanus) oqean `ocean'.
From PIE the root for water, ocean, passed to Altaic:
Protoform: *ōk`e (˜ -k-)
Meaning: `deep place, place far from the shore'
Turkic protoform: *ȫkö
Tungus protoform: *(x)uK-
Japanese protoform: *ǝki
Note: The parallel seems plausible; the common meaning here may be formulated as "a place (in the sea or river) distant from the shore".

Mongolian protoform: *arbaj
Tungus protoform: *arpa

Note: EAS 90, KW 15, Poppe 87. АПиПЯЯ 67. The Mong. form cannot be explained as a Turkism (despite TMN 2, 24, Щербак 1997, 100). The Turkic form is sometimes compared with Proto-Iran. *arba- (corresponding to Gr. alphi), cf. East Iranian forms going back to *arpasyā- (or *arbasyā) (Стеблин-Каменский 1982, 23), but it is not identical (loss of the final syllable is hard to explain); on the other hand, the Jpn. parallel is a strong argument in favour of the Altaic origin of the Turkic form.

The Illyr. TN Albanoi is the plural form mhd. nhd. Alp, Pl. the Alben (originally probably `whitish nebulous figures') a primitive Indo European people who believed in evil spirits before an elaborate mythology developed later.
Arbën `name of alb. during Middle Ages'
see to these germ. words esp. Falk-Torp under aame (4, 1428), al (19, 1431), alv (22, 1431), elv I (188 f., 1454), emd (189, 1454); as `white water' also the name of Elbe (lat. Albis, Albia, from germ. *Alƀī, Gen. Alƀiōz =), anord. elfr `river' and river name (in addition probably also mnd. elve `riverbed'), compare gall. FlN Albis, Albā (now Aube; contrast Dubis, Dubā, i.e. `black, deep water'), lat. Albula, gr. ᾽Αλφειός (see esp. Schulze SBprAk.1910, 797 = Kl. Schr. 120).
Note: common gr. -kʷ- > -p-, -gʷ- > -b- phonetic mutation
In contrast to this assumption, it is doubtful from or in which circumference names like gall.-lat. Albiōn, mir. Albbu, Gen. Albban (stem *Albḫi̯en-) `Britain' (to cymr. elfydd or from the white chalk rocks), lat. Alpēs, ῎Αλπεις (high mountains?) and in ital., ligur. and kelt. areas frequent local name like Alba, Albium likewise below go back or, however, are not idg. derivation of the concept `white' (Bertoldi BSL. 32, 148, ZrP. 56, 179 f.).
Arm. aɫauni `pigeon, dove', barely for *alabh-n- (Bugge KZ. 32, 1, Pedersen KZ. 38, 313), see below. About the affiliation of *albhi- *albhi- `barley' s. d.
Maybe here belongs Hett. al-pa-áš (alpas) `cloud' in spite of Couvreur (H ̯ 106, 149) here.
To the ablaut: beside *albho-s seems to be two-syllable root form in gr. ἀλωφός (also ἐλεφιτίς?) and arm. aɫauni, and in addition tuned slav. intonation (serb. lȁbūd), s. Osthoff IF. 8, 64 f., Pedersen aaO.
This additional -bho- one syllable is in color names frequent suffix (e.g. lat. galbus lit. raĩbas `in different colors, multicolored, dappled' beside raĩnas; Brugmann Grdr. II2 1, 388 f), *albhos is obtainable in monosyllabic root *al- and on the other hand ἀλωφός is possible according to Brugmann aaO.
to lit. al̃vas `tin' (`white metal'), Old Prussian alwis `lead, plumbum', russ. ólovo `tin' (from idg. *alǝu̯o-? Balt. correspondences are borrowed according to Niedermann from the Slav.) stand in a similar relation, as gr. κορω-νός to lat. curv-us `crooked, curved, bent', Old Indian palāḫlaḫḥ (: palāvḫaḥ) to Old Prussian pelwo, also go back to a word root *alō[u]-: *alǝu-: *alu- (in arm. aɫawni and slav. words);
Note:
From balt. - slav. the notion for `white metals, white color, sick white' passed to Altaic family:
Protoform: *ni̯ā̀lpá
Meaning: `tin, lead'
Tungus protoform: *ńālban
Japanese protoform: *nàmári
Note: An interesting TM-Jpn. isogloss; cf. also Old Koguryo *naimul (see Miller 1979, 8). Jpn. *nàmá-ri < *nàpan-(r)i, with usual regressive nasalization.
Earlier:
Protoform: *ălpa
Meaning: `unable, sick; being at service, man-at-arms'
Turkic protoform: *ălp-
Mongolian protoform: *alba-n
Tungus protoform: *alba-
Korean protoform: *àrphằ-
Japanese protoform: *apar-
Note: Poppe 85, 121 (Turk-Mong.); TMN 2, 110-111.
gr. ἐλεφιτίς is sufficient by the reshuffle to which animal names and plant names are exposed everywhere, in order to ensure in addition still *aleḫbh-;
here as `the shining one' gall. alausa `European shad, twaite shad' (frz. alose, span. alosa), compare also gall. GN Alaunos, Alounae, brit. FlN Alaunos (nengl. Aln), cymr. PN Alun as well as arm. aɫauni `pigeon, dove' from *alǝu-n-.
A stem form ali- `white' is not provabe, in spite of Specht Dekl. 114, because hett. ali- `white' appears very uncertain (Couvreur H̯ 149 f., Friedrich IF. 58, 94) and gr. ἀλίφαλος, ἀλίφατα, ἄλiξ are to be explained differently.
Here, however, probably (as a `pale yellow plant') hisp.-lat. ala `elecampane' (Isid.), span.-portug. ala ds., furthermore with -nt-suffix ahd. alant ds., with it etymological identically the fish name ahd. alunt (newer alant), as. alund `whitefish, Alant' = (with gramm. alteration) aisl. - ǫlunn `a fish', idg. basic form *al-n̥t-/*al-ont-. The original meaning of al- is probably`white, shining', hence, then also `pale yellow' etc.
A precise separation of the meanings of al- and el- is not always possible, which is why Specht (Idg. Dekl. 59, 160) explained both stems as originally identical, thus al- as el- leads back to el-, with which he associates further (aaO. 114) the color root ar- (see below areĝ-), er- .
