ὁδός

• οὐδός (oudós) — Homeric (used only once in Odyssey)

From Proto-Hellenic *hodós, possibly from a Proto-Indo-European *sodós (“course”), which is traditionally derived from *sed- (“to sit”) and directly cognate with Proto-Slavic *xodъ (“motion; passage”), with more distant cognates including Sanskrit साद (sāda, “a sitting, riding, motion”); however, this has been disputed.^[1] For the putative semantic development, compare English set out from the same root, as well as road from Proto-Germanic *raidō (“ride, journey”).
