στάλιξ

Ancient Greek

Etymology

According to Beekes, the root could be either Proto-Indo-European *stel- (to set) (like στέλλω (stéllō, to prepare)) or Proto-Indo-European *steh₂- (to stand) (like ἵστημι (hístēmi, to stand)).

Pronunciation

 

Mark the vowel length of the ambiguous vowels ά and ι by adding a macron after each one if it is long, or a breve if it is short. By default, Module:grc-pronunciation assumes it is short if unmarked.
