Etymology
Somewhat, thought to be equivalent to (but formed already in , like  and , which is necessary to account for the sound shift), thus the original meaning would have been “the state of being wolfish”. Beekes maintains this etymology but, like Pokorny, considers the Greek root for “wolf” to be from rather than  with deformation. Compare the same root in such phrases as and.

The less commonly held comparison to is probably to be abandoned.
