Ancient Greek
[edit]Etymology
[edit]Uncertain. Beekes notes that, if it derives from κέλομαι (kélomai, “to urge, exhort”), the -ευ- 'remains unexplained', and compares it to the -ευ- found in κέλευθος (kéleuthos, “road”) and τελευτή (teleutḗ, “end; tip”).[1]
This etymology is incomplete. You can help Wiktionary by elaborating on the origins of this term. what does beekes mean here? isn't this just the suffix -εύω [for which we have an entry]
