Ancient Greek

Etymology

Since Fick (1890), considered a native word of Proto-Indo-European origin, cognate with the Sanskrit पिनाक (pínāka, staff, stick) and the Proto-Slavic *pь̏ňь (whence the Old Church Slavonic пьнь (pĭnĭ), the Russian пень (penʹ, trunk, stub)). On the other hand, Beekes prefers a Lua error in Module:parameters at line 159: 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.
