96 κνυζόω
Grammatical information: v.Meaning: only κνυζώσω (ν 401), κνύζωσεν (ν 433), of the eyes of Odysseus, that, while earlier περικαλλέα ἐόντα, were made dim and dark by Athena.Etymology: The basis seems preserved in κνυζοί οἱ τὰ ὄμματα πονοῦντες, κνυζόν ἀέρα ἐπινέφελον καὶ πνευματώδη H. (unclear Anacr. 87); cf. Büchner Herm. 75, 156 n. 1. Connection with κνύζα `scratch', κνύω is quite probable; the correspondence with κνυζάομαι is therefore prob. accidental. A remarkable parallel gives Lith. kniáuktis `get cloudy, cover oneself (of heaven), take a somber aspect' beside kniaũkti `miaow'; comparable niaũras `cloudy, somber, troubled', also `grumbling, nasalizing', niauróti `growl, of bears'. The word can be of independent (onomatopoetic or other) origin or show semantic analogy, can hsrdly be decided. Cf. Fraenkel Lit. et. Wb. s. kniáuka and niauróti. - Diff. on κνυζός, - όω (to ken- `press together'), certainly not better, WP. 1, 391, Pok. 559.Page in Frisk: 1,887Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > κνυζόω

97 κοίρανος
Grammatical information: m.Meaning: `ruler, commander, lord' (Il.).Compounds: rarely as 2. member, e. g. πολυ-κοίρανος `ruling many' (A. Fr. 238, lyr.) with πολυκοιρανίη `ruling many' (Rhian. 1, 10); but Β 204 = `ruling of many' with the first member as subject; the 2. member is verbal noun to κοιρανέω.Derivatives: κοιρανίδαι pl. `sons of rulers, members of the ruling house' (S. Ant. 940; Fraenkel Nom. ag. 2, 20); κοιρανῃ̃ος and κοιρανικός `belonging to the ruling house' (late poets); κοιρανίη `dynasty' (D. P., APl.; s. above); κοιρανέω `rule' (Il.).Etymology: With κοίρανος agrees (except the middle vowel) OWNo. herjann surname of Odin; given the productivity of the no-suffix, esp. in words of this meaning (Lat. dominus: domus, Goth. Þiudans `king': Þiuda `people' etc.), the word need not be an old inheritance. But the basis is in any case common, i. e. a word for `army, fighting group' with representatives in Germanic, Baltic and Celtic, e. g. Goth. harjis `army', Lith. kãrias `id.', MIr. cuire m. `crowd, group', Gaul. Tri-, Petru-corii people's-namen ("consisting of three, resp. four tribes"), IE. *kori̯os. In Greek too the word has existed, also in proper name like Κοιρό-μαχος, Κοιρατάδας (Solmsen Glotta 1, 76ff.). - Beside IE. *kori̯os there was without i̯o- * kor(o)- in Lith. kãras `war', OPers. kāra- `army, people'. Further details in Pok. 615f., Fraenkel Lit. et. Wb. s. kãr(i)as. - In Greek κοίρανος was replaced by ἄναξ and βασιλεύς; s. vv.Page in Frisk: 1,894Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > κοίρανος

98 μακέλη
Grammatical information: f.Meaning: `mattock' (Hes. Op. 470, Theok., A. R.), as destroying instrument of Zeus (A., S., Ar.).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: On the formation cf. ἀγέλη, θύελλα a.o. The similarity with δίκελλα (s. v.) cannot be a coincidence, "but a convincing explanation has not yet been found." (Frisk). Güntert Reimwortbildungen 122 f. assumed a cross of δίκελλα and a form *ματέλη correponding to Lat. mateola `instrument for cutting in the earth'. A remarkable similarity shows Arm. markeɫ `mattock'; loan from a common source (Vogt NTS 9, 334)? To be rejected Scheftelowitz ZII 6, 111 (to Lith. makãras `great stave', Arm. mač `plough-tail' [Ir. LW [loanword]]). - With μάκελλα, - έλη may belong also μάσκη δίκελλα, βάσκα μακέλη and μάκκορ (Lacon. for μάσκος) ἐργαλεῖον γεωργικόν, ὡς δίκελλα H.; s. Bechtel Lex. s. μάκελλα. Diff. on μάσκη Specht KZ 66, 220 n. 5: from *μάτ-κη to Lat. mateola etc. - Cf. Bq s. v. - We saw s.v. δίκελλα that these are Pre-Greek words in -aly-; s. Beekes, FS Kortlandt. On κ\/σκ cf.
