ὕβρις

Unknown; possibly Pre-Greek, given its unusual shape and the lack of a convincing Indo-European etymology.^[1] Other proposed explanations include:

• The first element ῠ̔́- (hú-) being from Proto-Indo-European *úd (“outward, up”) (supported e.g. by Frisk),^[2] with the second element perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *gʷreh₂- (“heavy, strong”) (whence βαρύς (barús), βριαρός (briarós). etc.).^[3]
• Per Nikolaev, from Proto-Indo-European *(H)i̯oHgʷ-ri-, assuming a relation to ἥβη (hḗbē, “vigour of youth, sexual maturity, adolescence”).^[4] Beekes rejects this on the grounds that it would be expected to yield *ὠβρι- (*ōbri-).^[1]
