ἄναυρος
See also: Ἄναυρος
Ancient Greek
editEtymology
editAccording to Beekes, of Pre-Greek origin. Others have interpreted the word as “waterless”, with ἀν- (an-, “alpha privativum”) + an unknown word for water (connected with the name of various rivers, like Metaurus, Pisaurus and Avara). Niemeyer connects the word to Proto-Germanic *auraz (“wet sand or earth, mud; water, sea”)[1]
