"Note: Latin rosa is similar enough to Greek rh\u00f3don that a relationship seems likely, but its nature is unclear. An outcome of rhod\u00e9\u0101 \"rosebush\" with a sibilant transmitted to Latin through Etruscan might explain the failure of -s- to rhotacize (unless rhotacism was nullified by the dissimilatory effect of the initial r). Both the Greek and Latin words have been attributed to a Mediterranean substratum, but this does not jibe with the presumed Iranian origin of rh\u00f3don.",
