φαιός
From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
Of unclear origin. The word has been compared with Latvian gaišs (“light, bright”) and Lithuanian gaĩsas (“beam of light, redness in the sky”) and reconstructed as Proto-Indo-European *gʷʰaiso- (“bright, shining”), though there are formal issues with this. Other reconstructions which have been proposed are *φαιϝός (*phaiwós) and *φαισϝός (*phaiswós).[1]
