1 βάταλος
Grammatical information: m.Derivatives: βαταλίζομαι `live like a β.' (Theano), - ίζω ( τὰ ὀπίσθια, of a horse) `turn to and fro' ( Hippiatr.). Shortened (cf. Chantr. Form. 31f.) βατᾶς ὁ καταφερής. Ταραντῖνοι H.; βαδᾶς κίναιδος ὡς Άμερίας H. - Demosthenes was called Βάτ(τ)αλος in his youth (D. 18, 180; Aeschin. 1, 126; 2,99). Perhaps it referred to a speech-defect, saying λ for ρ and so for βατταρίζειν `stammer' say βατταλίζειν; s. Holst Symb. Oslo. 4, 11ff.Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: One suggested connection with βατέω `mount'; but that βαδᾶς would be after βάδην, βαδίζω is quite improbable. Fur. 154 etc. connects convincingly σπάταλος, which shows Pre-Gr. origin (as does τ\/δ).Page in Frisk: 1,225-226Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > βάταλος
