Etymology
Borrowed Lua error in Module:parameters at line 360: 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, as is shown by the variants. Furnée further compares σφονδύλιον (sphondúlion), which would show pre-nasalization. A speculative attempt by Biraud, who finds the same suffix in στυφελός (stuphelós), ζάφελος (záphelos) and ῥάκελος (rhákelos).
