ἱμονιά

Ancient Greek

According to Beekes, from unattested *ἱμων (*himōn), which would match Proto-Germanic *sīmô (“rope”), and also Sanskrit सीमन् (sīman, “border, frontier, margin”), all from Proto-Indo-European *sh₂i-men (“to tie, bind”). Compare ἱμάς (himás), ἱμάω (himáō), ἱμάσθλη (himásthlē) and ἱμαῖος (himaîos).
