Grammatical information: n.

Meaning: `tree' (Hom., Pi.)

Other forms: also δένδρον (Att.), also τὸ δένδρος, gen. δενδρεος (Hdt.), s. Schwyzer 583

Compounds: Compp. 1. subst. καρυό-, λιθό-, ῥοδό-, σταφυλό-; 2. many bahuvrihi's in - δενδρος; δένδρος n., m. (Ion. Dor.; s. below)

Derivatives: δενδρ-ύφιον (Thphr.; s. Schwyzer 471 n. 7; untenable Specht Ursprung 267), δενδρίον (Agathokl.). - δενδρώδης `rich in trees' (Hp.), δενδρήεις `rich in trees' (Od.; s. Schwyzer 527), δενδρίτης, - ῖτις `belonging to the tree', also name of a stone (Thphr.; vgl. Redard Les noms grecs en - της [s. Index]), rare δενδρώτης, - ῶτις `with tree' (Hdn., E.; cf. Fraenkel Nom. ag. 2, 128 A. 2, Redard 13); δενδρικός `belonging to a tree' (Thphr.), δενδριακός `id.' (AP), δένδρινος `id.' (gloss.), δενδραῖος `from trees' (Nonn.), δενδράς f. `id.' (Nonn.). - δενδρών and δένδρωμα `thicket' (Aq.). - Denomin. δενδρόομαι, - όω `grow to a tree, change into a tree' (Thphr.) with δένδρωσις (Thphr.). - On δενδρυάζω s. δενδρύω.

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [214] * dreu- `tree'

Etymology: The form δένδρος is from the plural forms δένδρεα, - έων (from δένδρεον) ; the usual Attic form δένδρον is also secondary (cf. ἀδελφός from ἀδελφεός? and Schwyzer 583.), Wackernagel Unt. 109f., Shipp Studies 21f., 55. - δένδρεον \< *δένδρεϜον agrees with the Germanic word for `tree', Goth. triu, OE treow `tree' etc., PGm. *treu̯a- \< IE *dreu̯o-; though the form of the reuplication is rare (not with DELG to γάγγραινα). Further s. δόρυ, δρῦς. (Skt. daṇḍá- m. `stick, club' acc. to Kuiper Proto-Munda Words in Sanskrit 75ff. is a local LW [loanword].) Janda, Stock und Stein (1977) assumes *dem-dreu̯-om `tree planted near the house', like Strunk, Analecta Indoeuropaea Cracoviensia, vol. II: Kurylowicz Memorial Volume. Part One. Ed. W. Smoczyński, 357-63. (But does this type of compound exist?).

Grammatical information: f.

Meaning: `the olive (tree)' (Od.), rare ἔλαιος (m.) `(wild) olive' (Pi. Fr. 46, S. Tr. 1197);

Other forms: Att. also ἐλά̄α, Ion. ἐλαίη. Cypr. ἔλαιϜον ( Kadmos 3, 1965, 148).

Dialectal forms: Myc. erawa, -wo \/ elaiwa, - won\/.

Compounds: Because of the economic value of the oil and the olivetree there are many compounds, esp. since hellen. times. As 1. member ἐλαιο- refers not only to ἔλαιον, but also to ἐλαία, e. g. ἐλαιό-φυτος `planted with olives' (A.). As 2. member in bahuvrihi, e. g. ἄν-ελαιος `without oil, olives' (Thphr., Str.); in determinatives, e. g. ἀγρι-έλαιος = ἄγριος ἔλαιος (Thpr. usw.), χαμ-ελαία `Daphne oleoides' (Nic.), cf. Risch IF 59, 257, Strömberg Pflanzennamen 110; γλυκ-έλαιον `sweet-oil', ὑδρ-έλαιον "wateroil", i. e. `oil mixed with water' (late).

Derivatives: ἔλαιον n. `olive-oil, oil in general' (Il.); on the pair ἐλαία (- ος): ἔλαιον, for the tree resp. the product, s. Wackernagel Syntax 2, 17, Schwyzer-Debrunner 30.

Form. 344), diminut. ἐλᾳδιον (- ίδιον) `small olive-tree', also (from ἔλαιον) `a little oil' (Com., pap.); ἐλαιών, - ῶνος m. `thicket of olives' (LXX, pap.), `the olive mountain' (NT, J.), diminut. ἐλαιωνίδιον (pap.); ἐλαιεύς `id.' (Chalkis; s. Boßhardt Die Nom. auf - ευς 21f.). Adj. ἐλαίϊνος, ἐλά̄ϊνος `of olive -wood, belonging to the olive' (Il.), `of olive-oil' (Orph. L. 717); - ίνεος `of olive-wood' (ι 320 and 394; metrically easy contamination of - ινος and - εος, Risch Wortbildung 122, Schmid -εος und -ειος 38); ἐλαϊκός `of olive' (Aristeas, pap.); ἐλαιηρός `regarding oil' (Hp., Pl., pap. ; s. Chantraine 232); ἐλαιώδης `oily' (Hp., Arist.); ἐλαιήεις `belonging to the olive' (S.; on the formation Schwyzer 527). Denomin. verbs: ἐλαΐζω `cultivate olives' with ἐλαιστήρ, - τής `collector of olives' (Poll.) and ἐλαιστήριον `olive-press' (Mylasa); ἐλαιόομαι `be oiled' (Arist.) with ἐλαίωσις (Zos. Alch.).

Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]

Etymology: Lat. olīva, from Greek, proves a basic *ἐλαίϜᾱ, with *ἔλαιϜον to Lat. oleum. From Latin all European forms (s. W.-Hofmann 2, 205f.). On itself Arm. ewɫ `oil', which comes together with ἐλαία, ἔλαιον from a Mediterranaean source (Crete?, s. W.-Hofmann s. v.). See Bq. - The word is no doubt a Pre-Greek word.
