about marine words
Greek sea als αλς-αλος also salt αλς-αλατος I see connection
ship, ok there is not but there is a word sκαφη-σκαφος a small boat like a pit. (skaf -schif - ship)
original word comes from virb σκαπτω (dig) but when in sol is ekskafi but when in log of wood is skafi σκαφη, consider that as a canoe, main use was for laundry, but also as a kind of surf board, the original words for ships are
Lembos (small, als+embaino = the one that is safe to enter sea, a als+embark a barka)
akatos (small no carine system due to its shape)
naias ( big a pelasgian word)
ploio plio (big from virb Πλεω flow)
Dromon (fast dromeas = runner)
triiris (τριηρεις - 3 times fast)
etc
a boat that is from one log only that is excavated to take shape of a boat is skafi
the Greco-Thracians that are from black sea name their selfs Strantza-lides
there was a city named like that in front the sea,
I think Varna's first name Strand-za,
sail well 2 words ισαλος isal-os and salos σαλος
ισαλος the line of how the ship is in the water, (how good a ship can sail)
salos is the strange weather, the effects of storm, the big waves the move the ship uncontroled,
σαλεμενη θαλασσα = mad sea = a sea that has waves but no bad weather (waves can go away from storm center)
the ebb and ab-otis I think have connection
east well the Greek word is Εως Eos compare Εως- Ηους Eos-Ius
about sword spathi exist in modern but is wrong means in pocket from old virb ξεσ-πατ-ωνω get out of pocket-package
the original word is machaira μαχαιρα and the older xifei (ξιφος)
the helmet case
well the older in mycenean style helmet were made by calcium and wool,
why cause a copper materil is heavy and warm, and if a haevy thing strikes it it might broke or change shape so harms the head,
so they use a cover by wool and on it they sew many bones or sea shells
the greek word for shell is κελυφος and was really good against arrows,
also the armor alternate word for animals is kelyfos
maybe a connection among shell and helmet via Greek Kelyfos (k-h)
the shield has many names like oplon dipylon aegis, aspis was not the shild exactly but a system of a man who carry a big shield to protect, compare υπ-ασπις-της and the words aspondos ασπονδος - σπονδη spondi
As you see the compare give many words not clear Germanic but IE at least since exist at least in 2 languages,
The thing I can not connect with Modern Meaning but is connected with Clear meaning is the
King
in Greek simmilar word is only the gig
γιγ so the most possible is the γιγ-ας compare Lydian γυγης Hyges
so the only connection is the Phrygian word Gyges and the Greek Gigantes (giants)
