Headword: *nh=u+s
Adler number: nu,353
Translated headword: ship
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Dissylabic nh=u+s means the same as] nau=s.
Greek Original:
*nh=u+s: h( nau=s.
Notes:
The headword is the epic nominative singular nhu=s but with the diphthong resolved.
The entry derives from a scholion on Homer, Odyssey 1.185, where however editors read the correct monosyllabic form. At nu 296 and nu 303, the Suda offers legitimately disyllabic forms of this noun.
Keywords: dialects, grammar, and etymology; epic
