δίσκος
Ancient Greek
Etymology
Furnée pointed out that the traditional derivation from δικεῖν (dikeîn, “to cast”) is hardly possible, because the suffix “-σκο-” is rare in nominal derivation. Therefore, he suggested to start from *δισκ-, a variant of δικεῖν (dikeîn), which has Lua error in Module:parameters at line 95: Parameter 2 should be a valid language, etymology language or family code; the value "pregrc" is not valid. See WT:LOL, WT:LOL/E and WT:LOF. origin.
