单词 κάγκανος
释义

κάγκανος

Ancient Greek

Etymology

Perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *kenk- (to burn, dry, pain, desire, hunger, thirst) and cognate with Lithuanian kenkti (to damage, blight), Sanskrit काङ्क्षति (kāṅkṣati, he wishes, desires) and Proto-Germanic *hungruz (hunger). However, Beekes finds the root structure typical of Pre-Greek and adds that the words compared mean hunger and pain and not primarily arid and dry.
