adelphós

adelphós uhe.-agr. ἀδελφός Bruder

From Proto-Hellenic *əgʷelpʰós, from Proto-Indo-European *sm̥-gʷelbʰ-ó-s (“one/same womb”), from *gʷelbʰ- (“womb”), equivalent to ἁ- (ha-, copulative prefix) +‎ δελφύς(delphús, “womb”). The initial /h/ is lost due to Grassmann's Law. Cognate to Sanskrit सगर्भ्य (ságarbhya, “brother”).
