13 θᾶκος
Grammatical information: m.Meaning: `seat, chair' (Il.).Compounds: As 2. member e. g. in σύν-θακος, - θωκος `who has his chair together with another' (S., E.).Derivatives: Denomin. verbs: 1. θάσσω, ep. θαάσσω, only present stem, `sit' (Il.), \< *θαϜακ-ι̯ω, s. below; ( θοάζω for *θοάσσω) 2. θᾱκέω, θωκέω, also with prefix, e. g. συν-, ἐν-, `sit' (posthom.) with θάκημα `sitting' (S.), ἐνθάκησις `sitting' (S.), ἐνθακη `ambush' (Pompeiopolis; postverbal), θακεῖον `seat' (Attica IVa; cf. ἀρχεῖον, Chantraine Formation 61). 3. θακεύω `go to stool' (Plu., Artem.). - On θοάζω s. v.Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: From θάβακον θᾶκον η θρόνον H. it appears, that *θᾶκο was contracted from *θά(Ϝ)ακος; θῶκος will come from θώ(Ϝ)ακος, shortened *θό(Ϝ)ακος, which will have given with metr. lengthening θόωκος. One further assumes the zero grade, resp. ō-grade of τί-θη-μι (as in θωμ-ός). This is impossible for *θαϜακ-ος. One explains further, with Schulze Q. 435, *θάϜακος as assimilated from *θόϜακος. This is most improbable. - Lit. dėveti `carry' (of clothes) etc.' (Bezzenberger BB 27, 179) is not connected. - Details on θᾶκος, θῶκος in Björck Alpha impurum 349ff. - The word must be Pre-Greek, as seen by Fur. 342; a suffix - ακ- is frequent in Pre-Greek (Beekes, Pre-Greek, Suffixes); variation *θαϜ\/ θοϜ is normal (there is no need to assume a form *θωϜ); the form θοωκος requires *θοϜ-ᾱκ-ος).Page in Frisk: 1,647-648Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > θᾶκος
