Tantălus ( - los), i (Greek collat. form of dat. Tantaleo, after the form Tantaleus), m., = Tantalos, a king of Phrygia, son of Jupiter, and father of Pelops and Niobe. He was admitted by Jupiter to the feasts of the gods;

but, having disclosed their secrets, he was sent for punishment to the infernal regions, where he stood up to his chin in water under an overhanging fruittree, both of which retreated whenever he attempted to satisfy the hunger and thirst that tormented him. A rock also hung over him ever threatening to fall,

dīs, dītis, adj., rich, v. dives.

Dīs, ītis (nom. Dītis, Petr. Poët. 120, 76; Quint. 1, 6, 34; cf. Serv. Verg. A. 6, 273; the nom. Dis very rare in the poets; Aus. Idyl. 12: de deis, 3), m. [cf.: dīus, divus, deus], orig. denoting godhead, deity, in general, and of Jupiter in partic.; cf.: Diespiter and Diovis = Juppiter; afterwards exclusively as the designation of the god of the infernal regions, the Greek Pluto, connected with pater, Varr. L. L. 5, § 66 Müll.; identified by Caesar with the Celtic god of night, cf. Caes. B. G. 6, 18, 1 sq.; Cic. N. D. 2, 26; Tac. H. 4, 84 fin.; Suet. Oth. 8; Inscr. Orell. 1465-1470 and 4967;

without pater,

domina Ditis = Proserpina,

Verg. A. 6, 397.

dĭs, an inseparable particle [Sanscr. dva, two: dvis, twice; Gr. dis (dWis); cf.: bis, bini, dubius, duo; also Sanscr. vi- (for dvi-) = dis-], occurs before vowels only in dishiasco; it stands unchanged before c, p, q, t, s, and di; loses its s before b, d, g, l, m, n, r, and v; and becomes dif -before f. So, discedo, dispar, disquiro, distraho, dissolvo; dibalo, dido, digero, dilabor, dimetior, dinumero, dirigo, divello, etc. Before j (i) we have sometimes dī-, as in dijudico, dijungo, and sometimes dis-, as in disjeci, disjungo. Iacio makes disicio or dissicio. In late Lat. disglutino and disgrego occur; while disrumpo occurs in Cic. Lael. 22, 85; cf.

dirrumpo,

Plaut. Bacch. 3, 3, 37: dirripio in Cic. de Imp. Pomp. 19, 37, in some MSS.; and dimminuo in MSS. of Plautus, v. Neue Formenl. 2, 782 sq.—

Meaning.

Dis, in most cases, answers to our asunder, in pieces, apart, in two, in different directions, implying separation or division, as in: diffindo, diffugio, digero, discedo, discepto, discerno, discerpo, discindo, dido, diffindo, dimitto, dirumpo, divido, and a multitude of others.—

Less freq. = Engl. un-, reversing or negativing the meaning of the primitive, as in discingo, disconduco, disconvenio, diffido, diffiteor, disjungo, displiceo, dissimulo, dissocio, dissuadeo, and a few others; so, dinumero, to count as separate objects: disputo, to discuss different views or things. —

In a few words dis- acquires an intensive force, exceedingly, as, differtus, dilaudo, discupio, disperio ( utterly), dispudet, dissuavior, distaedet. This is but a development of its original meaning: thus, differtus is properly stuffed out; dilaudo, to scatter praise of, etc.—

Between, among, through: dinosco, dirigo (or derigo), dijudico, diligo, dilucesco, dispicio, dissereno.

dīs, dītis, adj., rich, v. dives.

Proserpine, daughter of Ceres and Jupiter, and wife of Pluto, who seized her as she was gathering flowers in Sicily, and carried her away to the infernal regions:
