Etymology

Also attested as Dacian κινούβοιλα (kinoúboila).[1][2] From a Proto-Indo-European plant name, compound of *ḱwṓ, *ḱun- (“dog”) and *h₂ébōl (“apple”),[n 2] whence also Lithuanian šunobelė (“buckthorn”),[1][2][3] and disputedly also Albanian thënukël (“dogberry”).[4] The initial ⟨s-⟩ ~ ⟨d-⟩ stands for ~ , the expected satem outcome of the original *ḱ-.[n 3] The shift of the to can be explained as regressive assimilation of the following vowel, written ⟨-y-⟩ ~ ⟨-u-⟩,[1] though we cannot rule out a possible influence of the Dacian form, where such shift is expected.[1]

Notes

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 In the manuscript we indeed find Bessi nupyla, which is likely to be interpreted as a copyist mistake for Bessi nupyla.
  2. ^ The devoicing of original *-b- to is regular.
  3. ^ Such outcome is curiously not observed in the Dacian form. See there for possible explanations.
