fis
From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
Albanian
Etymology
Possibly from Ancient Greek φύσις (phúsis, “origin”) (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?), although the auslaut doesn't follow the phonetic rules of loanwords into Albanian. Alternatively from Ancient Greek φῡλή (phūlḗ, “a union of individuals into a community”).
