θρυλίσσω

Ancient Greek

Etymology

May be analyzed as a denominative verb from *θρῦλος (*thrûlos, “fragment”), which would belong to Middle Welsh dryll (“fragment”), Gaulish *drullia (“waste”) and go back to Proto-Indo-European *dʰrews- (“crumble”). The primary verb is seen in Proto-Germanic *dreusaną (“to fall”); Latin frustum (“morsel”) is probably derived from this verb, like Latvian druska (“morsel, crumb”) with velar suffix. Another hypothetical connection is with θραύω (thraúō, “to break in pieces, shatter”), but then its vowel would remain unexplained. One might also compare θρύπτω (thrúptō, “to break in pieces”).
