1. Spoils and dogs
The modern Greek word "σκύλος" (SKEE-los) ≈ "dog" comes from the ancient Greek word "σκύλος" ≈ "skin, hide" which comes from the PIE (Proto Indo-European) root "(S)KEWH" ≈ "to cover, hide, skin".

The Greek word is related to the ancient Greek word "σκύλαξ" ≈ "dog". Related words include the following.

4. Mark 5:35 Trouble
Mark 5:35 While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's house certain which said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master any further? [kjv]
ετι αυτου λαλουντος ερχονται απο του αρχισυναγωγου λεγοντες οτι η θυγατηρ σου απεθανεν τι ετι σκυλλεις τον διδασκαλον [gnt]
