աղիւս
Old Armenian edit
Etymology edit
As noticed by Hrach Martirosyan, clearly borrowed from Hurrian 𒀀𒈜𒋾 (a-lib-ti /alipši/, “brick”),[1][2] at a time before the lenition of postvocalic *-p- > -w- in Armenian.[3] The Hurrian word is highly likely to be borrowed from Akkadian 𒋞 (libittum).[4] Note also Ancient Greek ἄλιψ (álips, “rock”) and Ancient Greek λίψ (líps, “rock”), attested only by Hesychius, judged by Nielsen to be more distantly connected to the Armenian word on semantic grounds.[3]
