ῥοή

Ancient Greek

From ῥέω (rhéō, “to flow”) +‎ -η (-ē), possibly inherited from Proto-Hellenic *hrowā́, from Proto-Indo-European *srowéh₂, from the root *srew- (“to flow, stream”). Cognate with Lithuanian sravà, Latvian strava, and Sanskrit *स्रवा (*sravā́) in such compounds as गिरिस्रवा (girisravā).^[1]
