1 θήνιον
θήνιον· γάλα, Hsch. -
2 θῆσθαι
Grammatical information: v.Meaning: `suck' (δ 89);Other forms: pres. inf. (δ 89), θήσατο aor. ind. (Ω 58, Call. Jov. 48), θησάμενος (h. Cer. 236) θήσατο `suckled' (h. Ap. 123); act. θῆσαι θρέψαι, θηλάσαι H.Etymology: With the medial σ-aorist θήσατο agrees best the active s-aorist Skt. adhāsīt `suckles' (only gramm.); beside it the root aorist adhāt `id.' (AV). As present Sanskrit has dháyati, which agrees both with OCS dojǫ and with Goth. daddjan, OSwed. dæggja `suck' (with "Verschärfung" [Gemination] of the j), IE *dhh₁-ei-̯eti (s. below). With θῆ-σθαι agree also OHG tāen, Latv. dêt `suck' (IE * dhē-); both languages have a yot-present, tāju, dêju, which is possible in θῆ-σθαι (\< *θή-ι̯ε-σθαι?), which seems athematic. As the other representatives of this etymon have θη- in Greek ( θηλή, θῆλυς, τιθήνη, γαλαθηνός; also θήνιον γάλα H.; (not τιθασός), it is obvious to see in θῆσθαι an innovation after θήσατο. - Beside IE * dheh₁- in θη- (cf. in Skt. fut. dhāsyati, dhātrī `whet-nurse' etc.) stands * dhī- in Skt. dhītá- `sucked', MHG dīen `sucked, give the breast'; further Skt. dhenā `milch-cow' point to * dʰeh₁-i-. On dháyati s. above. - More forms in Bq and the etymol. dict.
