nounmasculinea-stemulcer, boil, abscessFrom Proto-Indo-European *h₂óyd-o-s, an o-grade thematic noun from root *h₂eyd-, thus originally ‘swelling, tumor’ and secondarily ‘ulcer, abscess’. The formation is closely paralleled semantically by Ancient Greek οἶδος and belongs with οἰδέω and Old Armenian այտնում; compare also Latin aemidusBeekes 2010: 1053–54Kroonen 2013: 14Martirosyan 2010: 61, 706Orel 2003: 10. The same root underlies *aitrą < *h₂eyd-ro-m (and probably *aistô), reflecting a wider semantic development from ‘swelling’ to ‘tumor, pustule’ and thence ‘pus, poison’. A Balto-Slavic connection has also been proposed, especially Old Church Slavonic ядъ < Proto-Slavic *jadъ, although the precise preform and relationship are less secure; more recent discussion continues to associate this group with *h₂eyd-Matasović 2022: 12.
