θρύον
See also: Θρύον
Ancient Greek
Alternative forms
- θρῠ́σῐος (thrŭ́sĭos), θρῠ́σῐς (thrŭ́sĭs)
Etymology
Formally, one may compare βρύον (brúon), but further details are unclear. The connection with Proto-Slavic *trъstь (“cane”) is impossible because of the anlaut. The variants point to a Pre-Greek origin, which is not unexpected in the case of a plant name.
