Liddell and Scott (Gr.-Engl. Dict., s. v.) say: 'The root of έτ-ερος is said to be the same as Sanskr. ant-aras, Goth. auth-ar, Germ. and-er, Lat. alt-er, aut, French aut-rui, our eith-er, oth-er, itara = alius, also in Sanskrit.'

Whatever the root of ant-aras, auth-ar, alter, it seems to me that έκας shows nearer kindred to the Polynesian e, ke, ee, ese, eze, than to forms so developed as ant-ar, ant-ara, &c." (Fornander)
