Ancient Greek
[edit]Etymology
[edit]From *ἀετμός (*aetmós) (only attested in an inflected gloss ἀετμόν (aetmón, “wind”)), of uncertain origin. Traditionally derived from Proto-Indo-European *h₂weh₁- (“to blow”), and connected with ἄημι (áēmi, “to breathe, blow”) (as well as ἀϋτμή (aütmḗ, “breath, scent”), which is now considered unrelated); however, this leaves the vocalism unexplained. Despite superficially similar semantics and phonetics, not from Proto-Indo-European *h₁eh₁t- (“to breathe”) (whence German Atem (“breath”), Sanskrit आत्मन् (ātmán, “breath; soul”)).[1]
