Etymology
The Greek, but also the Latin variants, point to a Lua error in Module:parameters at line 290: 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. word. It was previously compared with Sanskrit कपि (kapi, “ape”) and Hebrew קוּף (qōf, “ape”) and assumed to be a loan from an unknown source.
