There is no entry for μέλιτος, which is a genitive form of the word, μέλι in Attic Greek. I am no expert at creating an entry so I thought I would put that to the community. My interest is in the root of diabetes mellitus, which is current in the medical literature regarding Sars-Cov-2. I have traced it to διαβήτης μέλιτος. διαβήτης means passing through (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%CE%B4%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%B2%CE%AE%CF%84%CE%B7%CF%82#Ancient_Greek), and μέλιτος is the genitive noun form meaning "of honey", so interestingly, it means "passing through of honey", a probable occurrence in Ancient Greece by some people if they suffered from diabetes. There seems to be no Latin root to diabetes; it is directly imported into English from Greek, unlike many Greek words which were used by the Romans in Latin. I have not checked other Internet or book sources, only Wiktionary for my information. I'm eager for what the community might find!
