Bill:
I see Kevin has already given you the requisite information.
But did you know, IW, that by connecting to the Perseus site you can do a
"reverse" search i.e search on "brain" and be directed to the Greek words
whose definitions contain the string "brain"?
The URL is:
http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/cgi-bin/enggreek?
and a search on "brain" will turn up 18 words with a definition which
contains "brain"
A truly great facility freely available to all.
