R. 2, 535) esp. in ὑπόδημα `shoe, sandal' (Od.) with ὑποδημάτιον (Hp.), ὑποδηματάριος `shoemaker' (Hypata II^p), διάδημα `band, diadem' (X.) with διαδηματίζομαι (Aq.); sec. zero grade in δέμα (Plb.). δεσμός, pl. also δεσμά, δέσματα `band, fetter' (Il.; on σμ- Schwyzer 493 and Chantraine 140f.) with several deriv: δέσμιος `fettered' (trag.), δεσμίης μαστιγίας, ὅς ἄξιός ἐστι δεσμῶν H., δεσμίς (Hp.), δεσμίδιον (Dsc.), δεσμάτιον (Sch.), δεσμώματα pl. `fetters' (A.); δεσμώτης `prisoner' and δεσμωτήριον `prison' (Ion.-Att.); denomin. δεσμεύω `bind, fetter' (Hes.) with rare δεσμευτής (Sch.), δεσμευτικός (Pl.), δεσμευτήριον (pap.), δέσμευσις (pap.); δεσμέω `id.' (hell. and late) with δέσμημα (Tz.); - ἀναδέσμη `band for the hair of women' (Χ 469), δέσμη `bundle' (Att.). δέσις `binding etc.' (Pl.), esp. ὑπό-δεσις `binding of shoes, sandals' (Ion.- Att.). δεταί pl. `torch, fire' (Λ 554, Ar.

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [183] * d(e)h₁- `bind'

Etymology: Directly agree δετός ( διά-δετος A., δετός Opp.) and Skt. ditá- `bound' as well as δῆμα ( ὑπό-δημα etc.; s. above) and Skt. dā́man- `band'. Of the presents δίδημι (Λ 105) is prob. an innovation to δήσω, δῆσαι etc. after θήσω: τίθημι. The ε-vowel in δέω, δέσις, δετός etc. like that in τί-θε-μεν, θέσις etc. must be the zero grade dh₁- beside dē- in δήσω etc.; (the Skt. pres. - dyati (ā́-dyati) `bind' from *dh₁-i̯e-ti.).

Page in Frisk: 1,374-375

Grammatical information: f. (m.)

Meaning: `flexible branch, twig which can well be used for twisting' (Il.);

Compounds: some compp., e.g. Λυγο-δέσμα f. "bound with willow-twigs", Lacon. surname of Artemis (Paus.).

Derivatives: λύγιον `twig' (sch.), λυγέα `withy' (Eust.), λύγινος `of λ.' (Heph. ap. Ath.), λυγώδης `like a willow' (Dsc., Eust.), λυγόω `wind, bend' (AP, APl.). - Also λυγίζομαι, -ω `turn (itself), wind, bend' (Hp., att., Theoc., AP) with λυγισμός `turning, bending', of ring-fighters, dancers etc. (Ar., Luc.), λύγισμα `sprain' (Dsc.), - ιστικός `supple, readily twisting' (Poll.).

Origin: IE [Indo-European]X [probably] [685] * leug- `bend, twist'

Etymology: Interpreted as verbal noun λύγος can be combined with isolated formations in other languages: Lith. verbal adj. lùg-nas `twistable, supple', wit the denomin. yotpresent OWNo. lykna (from PGm. * lukn-jan) `bend the knee'; Lat. verbal adj. prob. luxus (from * lug-s-os) `sprained' (cf. λύγισμα). Here also Lat. frequentative lucto(r), luctāre, -rī `wrestle' (with backformation lucta f. `ring-fight'), prop. *"turne oneself"; cf. λυγισμός. More, more or less hypothetical connections in Bq, WP. 2, 413f. (after Persson Beitr. 1, 203ff. a.o.), Pok. 685 f., Fraenkel Wb. s. lùgnas; further (very hypothetical) Jēgers Comment. Balt. IV--V:3, 24ff. - The orig. meaning of λύγος would be "turning, bending"; perh., λυγίζομαι retained an idea of the abstract meaning. But one might find this improbable
