1 ἀπτοεπής
Grammatical information: adj.Meaning: unknown; said of Hera (Θ 209).Etymology: Wackernagel BB 4, 2 83f. analyzes as *ἀ-επτο-επής `who speaks words that should not be spoken'; no very convincing. Meier-Brügger ( MSS 50 (1989) 91-96) suggests that it contains *n̥-sngʷʰ-to- `what cannot be sung', cf. ModHG sing- ; it would be the same element as in ἄαπτος (which is not evident); also not very convincing.Page in Frisk: 1,126Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ἀπτοεπής

2 βόλβιτον
Grammatical information: n.Other forms: - ος m. (Thphr.), βόλβιθος (PMag. Par.; after σπύραθος, σπέλεθος ?, s. Chantr. Form. 367); also βόλιτον, - ος (Cratin.); βόλβιτα ἀφόδευμα βοός H. (i.e. βόλβις), βόλβυθον τὸ αὐτό H.Derivatives: βολίτινος (Ar.); βολίταινα cuttle fish, which smells badly (Arist.), also βολβίτιον (Gal.) and βολβίς (Epich.).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: "The usual assumption that βόλιτον arose from βόλβιτον through progressive dissimilation, is hardly convincing" (Frisk). But that βόλβιτον is euphemistical through the influence of βολβός (Frisk) is not very convincing either. To derive βόλιτον from βάλλω, βόλος, and βολεών `Düngerhaufen' leaves the formation unexplained. It is much more natural to assume variation in a Pre-Greek word, which is confirmed by the fact that the suffix - ιτον is known from there (Fur. 163; further 180, 187; further the θ and the υ are typical variations. I wonder whether the variation β\/zero, to which Furnée devotes a chapter, derived from a labial [l]: * balʷ-it-, on which see αὖλαξ and Beekes, Pre-Greek. - The discussions in Frisk and DELG are examples of the wrong approach of Pre-Greek words: explaining away the characteristics of Pre-Greek.Page in Frisk: 1,249Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > βόλβιτον

3 διερός
Meaning: in Hom. qualification of ἀνήρ (ζ 201 ἀνηρ διερὸς βροτός), of πούς (ι 43); in Diog. Laert. (AP 7, 123) adj. of φλόξ. In Anaxag. 4, 12 the opposite of ξηρός, `humid' (A.).Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: The meaning was in antiquity already unknown, as appears from the attempts in H.: διερός λαμπρός, ζῶν, περιφανής. Connection with δίεμαι is no solution (as * dih₁- does not give διε-). - Acc. to Schulze (s. Bechtel Lex. s. v.) in ζ 201 = *δϜιερός `to be feared', of δείδω (s. v.); semantically not convincing. One also connects (Frisk) μιαινω; not very convincing (not from an r\/n-stem). One has also split the words.Page in Frisk: 1,390Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > διερός

4 κόλον
Grammatical information: n.Meaning: `large intestine, ileum' (Ar. Eq. 455, Arist., Nic., Poll.); name of food preserved in a pot ( PSI 5, 535, 39; 46, IIIa), after Ath. 6, 262a = ἡ τροφή.Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: No convincing explanation. Bq points with hesitation to κυλλός `curbed', κελλόν στρεβλόν H. Others (Hoffmann BB 15, 47, Wood ClassPhil. 21, 341ff., Lidén KZ 61, 23) connect καλίδια ἔντερα. Κύπριοι H. (s. v.). Late Greek had the form κῶλον, through influence of κῶλον `member'. Fur. 131 connects χοάς `intestines', further χόλικες, γόλα ἔντερα. Μακεδόνες ( γόδα codd.), γάλλια ἔντερα, γάλλος = χόλιξ; none really convincing.Page in Frisk: 1,902Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > κόλον

5 κρησφύγετον
Grammatical information: n.Meaning: `place of retreat, resuge' (Hdt., D. H., Luc.).Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: Acc. to Wackernagel KZ 33, 56 f. (= Kl. Schr. 1, 735f.) from *χρησφύγε-τον, dissimilated with contraction from *χρηεσ-φ., compound wit suffix το- (cf. ἀκμό-θε-τον) from φυγεῖν and χρῆος `guilt', so prop. "flying from guilt"; see Wackernagel l.c. Criticized by Kretschmer KZ 33, 273f.; cf. Brugmann IF 18, 431; Chantr. calls it more ingenious than convincing; he assumes a suffix - ετον. - The connection with κάρᾱ `head' (Kretschmer KZ 31, 410, Solmsen RhM 53, 155f.) gives no convincing meaning; wrong Charpentier BB 30, 155ff. (s. Bq a. WP. 1, 486). Kapsomenos, Glotta 40 (19662) 43-50 assumes *πρησφ-, with a variant of πρεσ- = προς.Page in Frisk: 2,17Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > κρησφύγετον

6 μέταλλον
Grammatical information: n.Meaning: `mine, quarry' (Hdt., Th., X., Att. inscr.), late also `mineral, metal' (Nonn., AP, backformation from μεταλλεύω).Derivatives: 1. μεταλλεῖα n. pl. `minerals, metals' (Pl. Lg. 678 d), substantiv. of *μεταλλεῖος `belonging to a mine'. 2. μεταλλικός `belonging to the mines' (D., Arist.). 3. μεταλλεύς m. `miner' (Lys., Pl. Lg., Att. inscr.; Boßhardt 60f.); from there, or from μέταλλον, 4. μεταλλεύω `be miner, work in the mines, dig up from quarries' (Pl., LXX, Arist.) with μεταλλ-εία (Pl., Str.), - ευσις (Ph. Bel.) `mining', - ευτής = μεταλλεύς (Str.; Fraenkel Nom. ag. 2, 63 f.), - ευτικός `belonging to mining' (Pl. Lg., Arist., pap.). 5. μεταλλίζομαι `be condemned to the mines' ( Cod. Just.). 6. μεταλλῖτις γῆ τις H. (Redard 108). -- On itself stands μεταλλάω `investigate, inquire, examine' (Il., late prose), cf. below.Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Technical term for mining and as such suspect to be a loan. The attempt to explain μέταλλον from μεταλλάω as backformation (Eichhorn, De graecae linguae nominibus deriv. retrogr. conformatis. Diss. Göttingen 1912, S. 47 f.; rejected by Kretschmer Glotta 6, 299, but accepted by id. Glotta 32, 1 n. 1), does not help, as for the verb no convincing etymology has been found; the explanation from μετ' ἄλλα, prop. "(inquire) after other (things)", e.g. Buttmann Lexilogus 1, 139 f. (with Eust.), Kretschmer l.c., is hardly convincing. Much more probable is, to see in the denominative μεταλλάω an orig. tecnical term, which was by ep. poets used in metaph. sense, but further came out of use. -- For foreign origin a. o.

7 ὄχθη
Grammatical information: f., usu. pl. - αιMeaning: 'high and rocky edge by the water, bank, shore' (Il.).Derivatives: ὄχθος m. `height, hill' (Ion. since h.Ap.17), `hunch, outgrowth, tubercle' (medic.) with ὀχθ-ηρός `hilly' (hell.), - ώδης `full of outgrowth, tuberculous' (D. H., medic.).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]Etymology: Ending (suffix) as in μόχθος, βρόχθος a.o. (Schwyzer 510f., Chantraine Form. 366f.), but the usual connection with ἔχω is not convincing materially. Not very convincing either Grošelj Živa Ant. 5, 229 f.: to Av. vaγδana- `head' (cf. on ὄχθοιβος). -- On εὔοχθος, - έω s. v. -- Furnée 110 etc. compares ἀκτή `promontory, edge', which would point to a Pre-Greek word.Page in Frisk: 2,456Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ὄχθη

8 ῥέθος
Grammatical information: n.Meaning: `face, countenance' (S. Ant. 529, E. HF 1205 [both anap.], Theoc. 29, 16, Lyc. 1137), `body' (Lyc. 173), meaning un χερταιν (Sapph. 22, 3); pl. `faces' (A. R. 2, 68), `limb' (Theoc. 23, 39); older meaning unclear ( ἐκ ῥεθέων Π 856 = Χ 362, Χ 68); cf. ῥεθέων σπλάγχνων, μελῶν, σωμάτων H.; sch. on Χ 68 proposes `face, mouth', also `nostrils', the last of which is preferred by Leumann Hom. Wörter 218ff. (where older lit.) because of the plur. Cf. Snell, Entdeckung des Geistes 24-6, who demonstratess the transition from the literal meaning (a bodypart) to `body'.Compounds: As 1. member in Aeol. ῥεθο-μαλίδας, after sch. on Χ 68 = εὑπροσώπους; litt. "with face-apples". As the meaning `face, countenance', by gramm. given as Aeolic, is certain, we have to start from this in explaining the word. Both an older ep. meaning `mouth' and `figure, body' seems possible; cf. e.g. Lat. ōs `mouth, face', faciēs `figure, face'; the plur. could be after μέλεα, στήθεα, στέρνα, νῶτα a.o. On the meaning in Hom. cf. Vivante Arch. glottol. it. 40, 41 f. -- An orig. mening `nostril(s)' fits excellently, and the transition to `face' or `body' is unproblematic.Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: No convincing etymology. If we can trust the byform ῥόθος in EM 701, 34, the word must be IE and the θ must belong to the root [but this is doubtful]. Against connection with Skt. várdhati `grow' (to which a.o. Slav., e.g. Russ. rod `lineage, birh', Czech. ú-roda `figure, beauty') as *`figure' (= 'Wuchs'), Frisk IF 49, 101 ff., tells, as Leumann l.c. rightly remarks, the lack of the Ϝ- (β-) in Aeol. ῥέθος. Diff. Fraenkel Glotta 32, 31 ff. (agreeing Treu Von Homer zur Lyrik 190 n. 4): to ῥίς, ῥέω; neither morpholog. nor semant. convincing. -- An orig. mening `nostril(s)' fits excellently, and the transition to `face' or `body' is unproblematic.Page in Frisk: 2,648Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ῥέθος

9 στύφω
Grammatical information: v.Meaning: `to astringe, to have an astringent effect, esp. of taste, to thicken, to obstruct, to treat with a corrosive' (Hp., Arist., hell. a. late).Dialectal forms: Myc. turupterija? (sc. γῆ)Derivatives: 1. στῦψις ( ἐπί-, ὑπό-) f. `astringence, thickening, corrosion' (Hp., Arist., Thphr. etc.). 2. στῦμμα ( στύμμα?) n. `astringent' (medic.). 3. στυπτηρία, Ion. - ίη, f. des. of contracting minerals. `alum (-stone), vitriol' (Hdt., Hp., Arist. etc.), also 'alum-monopoly' (pap.), with - ήριος `treated with alum' ( PHolm.), - ηριώδης `containing alum' (Hp., Arist. a.o.), - ηριακὸν δέρμα = aluta, - ηρίζουσα = aqua qua alumen lavatur (gloss.); also - ηρά `id.' ( PHolm.), prob. after the adj. in - ηρός, e.g. ταριχηρός (s. Mayser Pap. 1: 3, 96); cf. Scheller Oxytonierung 119. 4. στυπτικός `astringent' (Diocl. Fr., Hp., Thphr. a.o.). 5. στυφός `id.' (Vett.

Gr., H.).Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: Without convincing explanation. The formal similarity with στύω (s. v.) is obvious (cf. θύω: τύ-φω). Also a semantic connection can be construed if one wants ('stiff, be solid, get more solid, draw together'), but does not become very convincing. (The same is true of the connection with στύππη, στύππεῖον (s. v.), which is Pre-Greek.) Cf. also στρυφνός. -- Further, partly deviating combinations in WP. 2, 620 and Pok. 1035.Page in Frisk: 2,815-816Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > στύφω

Perh. this is the place for the textually uncertain pass. Ac 26:28 ἐν ὀλίγῳ με πείθεις Χριστιανὸν ποιῆσαι you lose no time trying to make me play the Christian (cp. the tr. in Beginn. IV 322, w. reff. to 3 Km 20:7 and patristic authors cited in Soph., Lex. s.v. ποιέω 3; s. also Lampe s.v. ποιέω C). Because of apparent misunderstanding of the idiom, this wording is simplified in a widespread v.l. in which ποιῆσαι is replaced with γενέσθαι in a short time you are persuading (or trying to persuade) me to become a Christian (cp. Jos., Vi. 151 πρὸς ὀλίγον ἐπείθοντο=‘they were nearly persuaded’), prob. meant ironically. Bauer considered it prob. that the rdg. of the text be understood as a combination of the two expressions ‘in a short time you are persuading me to become a Christian’ and ‘in a short time you will make me a Christian’, so that the sense is someth. like you are in a hurry to persuade me and make a Christian of me (so Goodsp, Probs. 137f [but it is not clear whether “make” here is to be understood in the sense ‘play the part of’].

20 ἀγαθός
Grammatical information: adj.Meaning: `good' (Il.).Other forms: ἀκαθόν· ἀγαθόν H.; χάσιος· χρηστός H. Dor. χάϊος `noble, good' (ᾱ)Origin: IE [Indo-European]X [probably], LW [loanword]X[probably] [413]Etymology: Uncertain. On the one hand, one compares Germ. forms, Goth. goÞs, NHG gut, MLG gaden `fit' etc., further OCS godьnъ `pleasant', goditi `be pleasant', Russ. gódnyj `useful'. (Not with Skt. gadh- `to take, seize', gádhyā- `booty' which would have given *( ἀ)καθος). Crim. Goth. gadeltha `pulchrum'. The words must have a\/ā (long ō is morphologically excluded; Slavic cannot have h₂). Considered as a European substratum word by Beekes KZ 109 (1996). - Recently the word is analysed as *mǵh₂-dh₁-os `made great' (Panagl FS Strunk (1995)), which is semantically not convincing; or `whose deeds are great' Ruijgh 1991, FS Bartoněk, which is also semantically unconvincing. - If the variants are reliable, it could be Pre-Greek.Page in Frisk: 1,5-6Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ἀγαθός
