121 σκεῦος
Grammatical information: n.Meaning: `vessel, device', mostly pl. `house-, ship-equipment, weapon, armour, luggage' (IA.).Compounds: Often as 1. member, e.g. σκευο-φόρος `carrying luggage, luggage-carrier' (IA.), σκευ-ωρός `luggage-watcher' (Cratin.) with - ωρέομαι, - ωρέω, - ωρία, - ώρημα `to look after, through the luggage, to instigate (slyly)' (D., Arist. etc.), later also σκαιωρέομαι etc. (after σκαιός); as 2. member in ἀ-σκευής `without equipment' (Hdt.).Derivatives: σκευή f. `armour, clothing, wear' (IA.); as 2. member e.g. ὁμό-σκευος `with equal armour' (Th.); to this very often w. prefix: παρα-, κατα-, ἐπι-σκευή a.o. as backformations to παρα-σκευάζω etc. (cf. below). -- Diminut.: σκευ-άριον n. `small device' (Ar. a. o.), `simple wear' (Pl. Alc. 1, 113e), - ύφιον n. `small device' (Lyd.). -- Secondary formation: σκευ-άζω, - άζομαι, aor. σκευ-άσαι, - άσασθαι, very often w. prefix, παρα-, κατα-, ἐπι- etc. in diff. shades of meaning, `to equip, to arm, to dress, to prepare etc.' (IA. since h. Merc.); from there, mostly to the prefixcompp., σκεύ-ασις, - άσιμος, - ασία, - ασμα, - αστός, - αστής, - αστι-κός; also παρασκευ-ή etc. (s. above). Denominative ἐπι-, κατα-σκευ-όω (: ἐπι-, κατα-σκευή) = - ἀζω (Argos, Crete, Delphi a. o.), σκευοῦσθαι = ἑτοιμάζεσθαι H.Etymology: The nouns σκεῦος, -ή (for *σκεῦσος, - σά because of the retained ευ-diphthongs?; cf. Schwyzer 348 Zus. 4) look like primary formations and presuppose as such the former existence of a primary verb, approx. *σκεῦ[σ]-σαι, *σκεύ[σ]-ι̯ω, which must have been replaced by the second., denomin. or deverbat., σκευ-άζω. -- Expression of every-day language, prob. inherited, but without convincing etymology.
