Etymology

According to Beekes, all the variations prove a Pre-Greek origin of the word. However it matches the Semitic root כ־ד־ב (k-ḏ-b) / ك ذ ب (k-ḏ-b) (Hebrew כ־ז־ב (k-z-b)) related to lies, most closely in Aramaic כַּדָּבָא (kaddāḇā, frequently lying) and in Arabic كَذَّاب (kaḏḏāb, frequently lying). Thus doublet of κίβδηλος (kíbdēlos, deceitful; fake).
