(Many derive the word from ἄγνυμι and ἅλς, as though equivalent to ἀκτή, the place where the sea breaks; others from αἶγες billows and ἅλς [Curtius, § 140; Vanicek, p. 83]; others from ἀΐσσω and ἅλς [Schenkl, Liddell and Scott, under the word], the place where the sea rushes forth, bounds forward.)
