Μεγαρεῖς.Etymology: Popular word with variation of the form (as in popular words). If one may start from *νίκνον, *νικνᾶν, the forms λίκνον and νίκλον, prob. also νικμᾶν (in εὑνίκμητον) can be understood as dissimilated forms; further perhaps also λικμᾶν (on the formation Schwyzer 731) from νικμᾶν and, with loss of the anlaut, ἰκμᾶν, s. Bechtel Lex. s. λικμάω after Legerlotz KZ 8, 123f. and Schulze KZ 42. 380f. (= Kl. Schr. 58f.). Diff. on the variation μ:ν Schwyzer 338 (after J. Schmidt a. o.), on ἰκμᾶν J. Schmidt Kritik 108 n. 1 (from ἀνικμᾶν, haplologically for *ἀνα-νικμᾶν, wrongly interpreted). Cf. also Danielsson Eranos 14, 1ff. on the dark ἀπολεικαι (inscr. Miletos). - If one starts from *νίκ-νον, we get an attractive connection with the fullgrade and derived Lith. niekóju, -óti `winnow (corn)', Latv. niẽkât `swing groats in a mill' (Bugge Curt. Stud. 4, 335 f.); cf. the suffixless Greek forms above. Also Celtic forms have been compared, e.g. Welsh nithio, Bret. niza `winnow'. Lith. liekúoti `winnow (corn)' and Latv. lìekša `shovel' have nohing to do with λικμάω (they are folksetymological tranormations after lìkti `remain behind'. - WP. 2, 321, Pok. 761, Fraenkel Wb. s. niekóti m.Page in Frisk: 2,122-123Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > λικμάω
