φρέαρ

Ancient Greek

From Proto-Hellenic *pʰrḗwər, from Proto-Indo-European *bʰréh₁wr̥ (“well, source”) (whence Sanskrit भुर्वन् (bhúrvan, “restless movement of water”), Old Armenian աղբիւր (ałbiwr, “fountain, source”), Proto-Germanic *brunnô),^[1] from *bʰrewh₁-, which is cognate with Latin ferveō, English burn, brew. The original vowel sequence *ηᾰ (*ēa) was changed to εᾱ (eā) by quantitative metathesis.
