2 δέφω
δέφω, - ομαιGrammatical information: v.Meaning: `soften (with the hand), masturbari' (Ar., Eub.),Other forms: Aor. ἐδέψατο in Hippon.?, s. Scheller Münch. Stud. z. Sprachwiss. 6, 88ff. - Pres. 3. sg. δέψει (- εῖ?) Hdt. 4, 64; aor. ptc. δεψήσας μ 48.Derivatives: δεφιδασταί m. pl. members of a guild of fullers (Argos), in - αστής, - ιστής (Chantr. Form. 317ff.), further unclear; on *δεφίς, *-ιδος? - δέψα `tanned skin' (Suid.); ἀδέψητος (υ 2; 142 u. a.).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: The present δέψω (cf. ἕψω) beside δέφω has an s-enlargement; the cases in Schwyzer 706 are not completely comparable H. Petersson KZ 47, 285 compares Arm. top`em `beat' (denomin.) and SCr. dépati `butt, slay', Pol. deptać `tread'. (Lat. depsō, -ĕre is a Greek LW [loanword].) One compares also διφθέρα(s.v.), which would certainly point to a Pre-Greek word. The variation - φ-\/- ψ- also points to such an origin (cf. esp. δέψα; Fur. 263 etc.). The form in Armenian is unproblematic; the European forms would be more difficult.Page in Frisk: 1,372-373Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > δέφω
