nounfeminineō-stema strap, band, or thong, especially one forming a loop or fasteningFrom Proto-Indo-European *h₂énk-ul-eh₂, from root *h₂enk-, probably originally denoting a bent or looped object and hence a strap or thong Beekes 2010: 12–13, s.v. ἀγκύλοςDerksen 2015: 56, s.v. ankaKroonen 2013: 29Ringe 2017: 124Rix et al. 2001: 268. Ringe reconstructs the phonological preform as *h₂ánkulah₂ and notes that *anhulō beside *angulaz preserves an inherited accentual contrast: root accent in *h₂ánkulah₂ prevented Verner voicing of the fricative produced by Grimm’s Law (*k > *h), whereas suffixal accent in *h₂ankulós yielded *g in *angulazRinge 2017: 124. Cognate with Ancient Greek ἀγκύλη from the same feminine formation, and related to Lithuanian ánka, from the same PIE root Beekes 2010: 12–13, s.v. ἀγκύλοςDerksen 2015: 56, s.v. ankaKroonen 2013: 29.
