different between sea vs hyaline

English

Etymology

From Middle English see, from Old English s? (“sea, lake”), from Proto-Germanic *saiwiz (compare West Frisian see, Dutch zee, German See, Danish sø, Norwegian Bokmål sjø, Swedish sjö), probably either from Proto-Indo-European *sh?ey-wo- (“to be fierce, afflict”) (compare Latin saevus (“wild, fierce”), Tocharian B saiwe (“itch”), Latvian sievs, s?vs (“sharp, biting”); more at sore) or derived from *s?hwan? (“to percolate, filter”), in which case *saiwiz is from earlier *saigwiz, Pre-Germanic *soyk?-ís.
