Etymology[edit]
From a Proto-Indo-European plant name, compound of *ḱwṓ, *ḱun- (“dog”) and *h₂ébōl (“apple”), whence respectively Lithuanian šuo and obuolỹs, also found in Dacian κινούβοιλα (kinoúboila) and Thracian sinupyla, dinupula (“bryony”).[1] Orel disputedly further connects this to Albanian thënukël (“dogberry”).[2]
