Grammatical information: m.

Meaning: `land, territory' (as opposed to the town), `people' (Il.); in Athens also a part of the phylai, a deme.

Dialectal forms: Dor. δᾶμος

Compounds: Of the compounds only δημοκρατία `government of the people' (Ion.-Att.), after ὀλιγαρχία, μοναρχία ( δημαρχία = `the office of δήμαρχος'); further Debrunner Festschrift Edouard Tièche (Bern 1947) 11ff.

Derivatives: (Dor. forms are not mentioned separately.) Substantives: dimin. δημίδιον, δημακίδιον (Ar.) - δημότης, Dor. also δαμέτας (Karpathos) `man from the people' (Ion.-Att. Dor.) with two normal adj.: δημόσιος `belonging to the people, state, public' (Ion.-Att.) with δημοσιεύω intr. `serve the state', also tr. `make public' and δημοσιόω `confiscate, make public' with δημοσίωσις. δημοτικός `belonging to the people, useful for the people, democratic'; on the difference between δημόσιος and δημοτικός Chantr. Form. 392; - fem. δημότις; denomin. δημοτεύομαι `be δημότης, belong to a demos' (Att.). - Adject.: δήμιος `belonging to the people, public' (Od.), ὁ δήμιος euphemist. `executioner' (Att., Benveniste Sprache 1, 121), δημώδης `according to the people' (Pl.), δημόσυνος surname of Artemis (Athens IV-III^a), δημότερος `belonging to the people' (Call.; after ἀγρότερος). - Denomin. δημεύω `make public, confiscate' (Att.) with δήμευσις and δημεῖαι αἱ τῶν δήμων συστάσεις H.; δημόομαι `sing, explain publicly' (Pi.) with δαμώματα τὰ δημοσίᾳ ᾳ᾽δόμενα (Ar.

Etymology: On δημιουργός s. v. Celtic agrees with OIr. dām `followers, crowd', OWelsh dauu `cliens', NWelsh daw(f) `son-in-law', OCorn. dof `gener'; only this is an ā-stem; so IE * dāmos orig. fem.? (Pedersen Hittitisch 52). Orig. `part', if an m-deriv. from a verb `divide', s. δαίομαι. So * deh₂-mo-. - (Not here Hitt. damaiš `other, second'; Pedersen l.c.; see Tischler on damaiš HEG. 8. 67ff.)

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [684] * h₁leudʰ- `grow up, come up; free'

Etymology: Old adjective, also in: Lat. līber, - era, also as gods name = Venet. Louzera, Pelign. loufir, Osc. (Iúveis) Lúvfreis = ( Iovis) Līberī; cf. Falisc. lōferta = līberta, OLat. loebertāt-em = Falisk. loifirtat-o; uncertain Toch. A lyutāri `the upper (men), overseer?' (Duchesne-Guillemin BSL 41, 181). - One starts from an old word for `people', which is found elsewhere, in Germanic and Balto-Slavic: OHG liut `people', pl. liuti `people', OE lēod `people', Lith. liáudis `lower people', Csl., Russ. ljudъ `people', OCS ljúdьje, Russ. ljúdi pl. `men, people'; IE * h₁leudh-o-, -i-; from there also Burgund. leudis `a free man', OCS ORuss. ljudinъ `free man'; ἐλεύθερος, līber (\< IE * h₁leudh-ero-s), so prop. `belonging to the people', as opposed to the subjected peoples. - Against Altheims idea (s. W.-Hofmann s. 3. Līber), the Ital. Līber came through Oscan from the Greeks (: Ζεὺς Έλευθέριος, Διόνυσος Έλευθερεύς; s. above), see v. Wilamowitz Glaube 2, 334 n. 2, also Pisani Ist. Lomb. 89 (1956) 17f., who points to Venet. Louzera, which shows that the god was original in Italy (see Krahe Das Venetische 24). - Rich litt. in W.-Hofmann s. 2. līber, 3. Līber and līberī, Fraenkel Lit. et. Wb. s. liáudis, Vasmer Russ. et. Wb. s. ljúd. - See also ἐλεύσομαι. The laryngeal is seen in Skt. vī-rudh- `plant', anū-rudh- (Mayrh. EWAia 2, 467ff.) - Of forein origin but perh. reshaped after ἐλεύθερος and with oppositive accent the PlaceN Έλευθεραί, from which Έλευθερεύς as surname of Dionysos; cf. on Εἰλείθυια and Έλευίς. - On the meaning Benveniste, Institutions 1. 321ff.
