nounmasculinea-stemworry, grief, anxiety; distressA thematicization of an inherited Proto-Indo-European neuter s-stem *h₂émǵʰ-os ~ *h₂emǵʰ-és-os, yielding pre-Germanic *h₂émǵʰ-os-o-s > *angazazKroonen 2013: 28. The noun belongs to Proto-Indo-European *h₂emǵʰ- (> *h₂enǵʰ- ); the older *m is supported especially by Hittite 𒄩𒈠𒀭𒆠 / 𒄩𒈪𒅔𒆠 whereas the familiar forms with *-n- characterize the non-Anatolian reflexes. Direct nominal cognates include Vedic Sanskrit अंहस्, Younger Avestan 𐬄𐬰𐬀𐬵, and Latin angor; compare also Ancient Greek ἄγχω and Latin angō from the same root de Vaan 2008: 42Norbruis 2021: 172–73Rix et al. 2001: 264–65Wodtko et al. 2008: 301.
