Ancient Greek
Etymology
Of unclear origin. The traditional connection to νέω (néō, “to swim”) is phonologically improbable due to the latter continuing the root Proto-Indo-European *(s)neh₂- (“to flow; to swim”), though similarities with Old Armenian նայ (nay, “wet, fluid”) are notable. Beekes, based on the lack of solid internal derivation, tentatively suggests a Pre-Greek borrowing,[1] perhaps Southern. If the Armenian is related, it may derive from the same substrate continuum.
