⁺ D 0-0-0-0-1=1 Sir 23,11

Grammatical information: adj.

Meaning: `double, twofold' (Hdt.); cf. τριφάσιος `threefold' (Hdt.), by H. also explained as τρίφωνος.

Derivatives: δίφατον διφάσιον, δισσῶς λεγόμενον H. and τρίφατος `threefold' (Nic. Th. 102).

Origin: XX [etym. unknown]

Etymology: Cf. διπλάσιος; so based on δί-, τρί-φατος. The second member is uncertain. The reference to φημί, seen also in δισσῶς λεγόμενον and. τρίφωνος ini H., is taken over by von Skutsch IF 14, 488ff. referring to Lat. bifāriam. Brugmann IF 17, 367, Grundr.² 2: 1, 186 connected πεφνεῖν, φόνος, θείνω as in ἀρηΐ-φατος `killed in battle', i.e. `twice slayed' (cf. on δίπλαξ). Not better with Walde Lat. et. Wb.² 90, Brugmann Grundr.² 2: 2, 71 to φαίνω as `twice visible'; one would expect *δίφαντος like ἄφαντος (in the Il.).
