Origin: IE [Indo-European] [817] * perh₂- `sell'

Etymology: The system περᾰ́-σαι: πέ-πρᾱ-μαι, πρᾱ-θῆναι agrees with zu κερᾰ́σαι: κέ-κρᾱ-μαι, κρᾱ-θῆναι; also with πελᾰ́-σαι: πέ-πλη-μαι, πλῆ-το (s. κεράννυμι and πέλας) etc.; to this πέρ-νη-μι, περ-να-μαι with analog. ε for orig. zero grade, which appears in πορνάμεν πωλεῖν, πορνάμεναι πωλούμεναι H. (Aeol.). The antiquity of this present formation is shown by the identical forms in Celt., OIr. renim `sell' (IE *pr̥-neh₂-: *pr̥-nh₂-); cf. κίρνημι, πίλναμαι. Further without exact non-Gr. agreement. The word represents an old branch of the great family of πείρω, πέρᾱ (s. vv.); on the development of the meaning Schulze Kl. Schr. 203 n. 3, Benveniste BSL 51, 38. -- As present and aor. act. were used for the vanishing πέρνημι, πέρναμαι and περάσαι, esp. in Ion. and Att., other verbs: πωλεῖν ( πωλῆσαι) and ἀποδόσθαι ( ἀποδίδοσθαι), also in fut. πωλήσω and ἀποδώσομαι; s. Chantraine Rev. de phil. 66, 11ff. w. further details a. lit. S. also πόρνη.
