Medieval spelling as in Τσακωνία f (Tsakonía, “area of Tsakonia”), or as in τζακονικός. * Ahrweiler associates the ethnonym of the inhabitants of Τσακωνία (Tsakonía, “Tsakonia”) with the medieval parallel use for the sense "guardians", or "soldiers" Tσάκωνες, Τζάκωνες, Τζέκωνες (or -ονες) from the words ζάκα, σάκα (military guard), of Arabic, Semitic origin (see Greek σάκκος (sákkos), Classical Syriac ܣܩܐ,), to τζάκων, τσάκων. * From the plural διάκονες or διάκονοι of the mediaeval διάκων (diákōn) or the ancient δῐᾱ́κονος (dĭā́konos, “servant, deacon of Christian church”), with mediaeval regional sense: "guardians", or "soldiers".. In this case, an etymologically informed spelling would be Τσάκονας with omicron. *: The spelling with omega Τσάκωνας has prevailed, regardless of etymological concerns. * From *Ἐξω-Λάκωνες (Exō-Lákōnes, “Outer-Laconians”) with a change of [ks] to [ts], typical of Tsakonian, and omission of [l] Not likely: * From τρᾱχών (trākhṓn, “rugged, stony tract”) genitive: τρᾱχῶνος * From Albanian tsakon (“rough, rugged land”) * From phrase εἰς τούς Λάκωνας (eis toús Lákōnas, “to the Laconians”). * From Slavic roots]

Another possibility is that it derives from Ancient Greek βολάχι (bolákhi), itself a diminutive form of βόλος (bólos). The affrication of the phoneme /k/ before the front vowel /i/ may have transformed βολάχι (bolákhi) to *βολάτσι (*bolátsi) and eventually βότσαλο (bótsalo).

Also see the vernacular ωρέ (oré). For the mediaeval forms μρέ (mré), μπρέ (mpré), βρέ (bré), see Etymology at the modern βρε (vre). The interjection seems to be etymologically identical to the vocative adjective, from Byzantine Greek μωρέ (mōré), via the semantic shift “fool” → “buddy, mate, man” (paralleled, for example, by AAVE fool and Latin American Spanish huevón). Likely a doublet of βρε (vre) and ρε (re), which may be clippings from the same original word. As similar interjections are found across the Balkan sprachbund (cf. Albanian bre and more), this has led some linguists to speculate about substrate origin, but the more popular assumption is that all are eventually from Greek.]

[Etymology: Via Byzantine Greek Ἀτσίγγανος (Atsínganos) and Ἀθίγγανος (Athínganos) from Ancient Greek ἀθίγγανος (athínganos, “who doesn't want to be touched; untouchable”), ultimately a compound of privative ἀ- (a-) + θιγγάνω (thingánō, “to touch”). The Middle Greek word had initially been the name of a Christian sect, the Melchizedekian sect, which was subsequently associated to Romani people. Nişanyan suggests, due to the very recent first attestation of the term in Greek (1378 AD), a Turkish lemma çıgañ /t͡ʃɯˈɣaɲ/ ("destitute, lazy") as its origin, which, in turn, explains the replacement of the accent. This modern accent could also be influenced by the feminine form Ἀτσιγγάνα (Atsingána). Petrounias, however, explains αθίγγανος (athínganos) as a paretymological variant of ἀτσίγγανος (atsínganos), influenced by the name of the Christian sect.

1. ripening, maturing and see senses at verb ωριμάζω (orimázo)

[Etymology: Learned borrowing from Katharevousa ὡρίμανσις (hōrímansis), already attested in 1881 and proscribed by Koumanoudis with ironic comments, (also at other dictionaries) because of its formation from nonexistent verb *ὡριμαίνω, instead of the expected form ὡρίμασις (hōrímasis) (attested since 1796) -modern ωρίμαση (orímasi)-. Created with Koine Greek ὡριμάζω (hōrimázō), modern ωριμά(ζω) (orimá(zo)) + feminine ending -ση (-si) with presence of ⟨-ν (n)-⟩ > -ν-ση as a hypercorrection to sound 'more ancient' according to the ancient pattern γηράσκω (girásko) > γήρανσις (gḗransis) as though from *γηραίνω, itself according to ὑγιαίνω (hugiaínō), past stem ὑγιαν- > ὑγίανσις (hugíansis), also ὑγίασις (hugíasis). notes: The ending -νση is expected from verbs in -αίνω or -ύνω, with the nu ⟨-ν-⟩ present in their stems. Still, the form ωρίμανση is most popular.]
