[ΚΥΒΕΡΝΑΩ, ΚΥΒΕΡΝΩ. The affix is equivalent to Cyber- ,or, Cyberno- (e.g. Cyberspace), and Govern- (all of them are sonic equivalents of the Greek word).
The original word must have been: (Η)ΥΠΕΡΝΑΙΩ (meaning:) "Floating over (something)".
ΝΑΙΩ (v.) = I float. (NAVY = floating). The word for the "ship" in ancient -and both the modern- Greek is: ΝΑΥΣ (pronounced: NAVS, NAFS ). ΝΑΥΤΙΚΟ = the Navy. ΝΑΥΤΙΚΟΣ = the sailor.
(Η)ΥΠΕΡ stands for: OVER ( deutsch: UBER, (S)UPER- ).
The word HIBERNIA (=winter), (just think: Hibernation) has to do with the snow clouds FLOATING OVER the land.
Siberia = HIBERNIA.
IBERIC / IBERIAN (peninsula) = HIBERNIA, too!]
WHAT ABJECTLY UNQUALIFIED NONSENSE!Whatever residue of fact is imbedded in the above statement is immaterial to say the very least.Michaelides, enough is enough. This is the second time I've come across your inconceivably benighted ad-lib drivel masquerading as a serious answer to an earnest question in etymology. Are you actually trying to be helpful here, or are you auditioning for the role of Gus Portokalos in a grade-school production of "My Big Fat Greek Wedding"?Should you ever tire of coating everything within reach in idealogue-sopped pseudo-linguisitcs like a petulant toddler flinging creamed spinach from his high-chair and become sincere about rectifying your tragically wayward command of the classics, then feel free to delve into some *competent* texts dealing with Greek and Latin.From a sense of nobless oblige, I'll even get you started; the following is an excerpt from a translation exercise in J.A.C.T's "Reading Greek", 2nd ed. [section 2C, p.26]. - to say that it is apropos this discussion does it not a whit of justice - it all but has your name written on it -let's see how you do!:ΚΥΒΕΡΝΗΤΗΣ·(SEE??! Eerie, no? There's more...)οὐδὲν λέγεις. ὦ φίλε, καὶ οὐκ οἶσθα οὐδέν. οὔκουν κάλλιστον τὸν λόγον ποιεῖς. ...σκόπει δή. ἡμεῖς μὲν γὰρ τὰ ἀληθῆ ζητοῦμεν, σὺ δὲ ψευδῆ λέγεις.Happy trails...
