ἰπνός

See also: Ἴπνος

Ancient Greek

Maybe from Proto-Indo-European *Hukʷ- (“cooking pot”) (compare Sanskrit उखा (ukhā), Albanian anë, Latin ōlla, Proto-Germanic *uhnaz, *uhwnaz). Beekes suggests a derivation from Proto-Indo-European *sep- (“to boil, bake”), like Ancient Greek ἔψω (épsō, “to boil, seethe”).
