πολύς

Etymology: From Ancient Greek πολύς (polús). This word shares the same Indo-European root *pelh₁- ('to fill, be abundant') with English words like 'plenty', 'plenary', and 'plethora'. The semantic connection is clear: abundance or large quantity. The feminine form πολλή and neuter form πολύ show the typical Greek adjectival pattern of gender inflection.
