Number: 493
Root: ēpi-
English meaning: comrade
German meaning: `Gefährte, Kamerad, traut'
Material: Ai. āpí- `Freund, Bundesgenosse', āpyam `Freundschaft, Genossenschaft'; gr. ἤπιος `freundlich, mild; beistehend'.
Vielleicht zu *epi `nahe hinzu, ἐπί', so daß *ēpi-s (und *ēpi-os) den `nahe bei einem weilenden, den hilfreichen Gefährten' bezeichnet hätte, woraus auch `traut'.
Zu ἤπιος aus dem Gr. noch ἠπάομαι ursprüngl. (?) `heile' (vgl. ἤπια φάρμακα πάσσειν) und daraus `flicke'?
