(θυάζω “ be grasped by bacchanalian dizziness “) probably from *dhŭs-i̯a because of θυστάδες Βάκχαι Hes. and θύσθλα the implements of Bacchus, the thyrsi and torches “, θυστήριος epithet of Bacchus;

    Note: common Lat. d- > f- phonetic mutation: Lat. furō -ere “ to rage, rave, be mad “ could be *dhusō , so that Furiae = Gk. θυῖαι; compare also v. Blumenthal IF. 49, 172 to δύσμαιναι Βάκχαι; ἐχθύσση ἐκπνέυσῃ Hes.; but θύελλα “ a furious storm, hurricane “ probably feminine of *θυελος “ storming, raging “, probably from *θυFελος; θῡμός “anger, soul “ is = θῡμός “ air, a current of air, breeze, breath, wind “ and not because of Ltv. dusmas “anger” lead back to a various basic form *θυσμός; compare Mũhlenbach-Endzelin I 521; Ablaut form *dhu̯es- in Hom. θέειον and θέιον (with metr. lengthening to θήιον), Att. θεῖον “ sulphur steam, sulphur “ (*θFεσ-(ε)ιον?).
