Ancient-Greek-Konopeion-MosquitoNet-Proto-Turkic-gune-guna

 

Mückennetz - Mosquito Net - Cibinlik


There is a word in Paulys RE 

Κωνωπεῖον Konopeion meaning Mosquito Net.

Etymology very uncertain. Semitic?

Maybe Turkic:

Look at the Proto Turkic word: Güne/Guna meaning MOTH > Modern Turkish güve!

Possible?
