单词 ἄμβιξ
释义

ἄμβιξ

Ancient Greek

Etymology

The suffix is no doubt a substrate element, as it is in κύλιξ (kúlix). It is often connected with ἄμβη (ámbē, raised edge) and ἄμβων (ámbōn, crest of a hill), but this remains uncertain. Derivation from ἀναβαίνω (anabaínō, to mount) seems most improbable. Ultimately, the origin of the word is still uncertain.
