APPENDIX 1 Greek loanwords in Niya Prakrit
View through CrossRef
Chapter 3 treated the etymology of two Niya Prakrit words which seem to
have originated in Greek but must have been borrowed via a Bactrian
intermediary, i.e. ks ̄una ‘date, reign, regnal year’ (§3.2.1 s.v.) and the measure
of weight milima (§3.2.2 s.v.).1 For five other Greek loanwords in Niya Prakrit,
a Bactrian intermediary cannot be proved. Their etymology is briefly
examined in this appendix.
