(εἰς τὸ μέσον Plat.; κατὰ βάρος Plut.)

κατά-νευσις, ἡ, das Zunicken, Bewilligen

Grammatical information: v.

Meaning: `nod, beckon, bend forward, grant'.

Other forms: Aor. νεῦσαι, fut. νεύσω, - νεύσομαι (Il.), perf. νένευκα (E.) - νένευμαι (Ph.),

Compounds: Often with prefix, e.g. ἀνα-, ἐπι-, κατα-.

Derivatives: ( ἔκ-, ἀνά- etc.)- νεῦσις f. `nodding, bending' (Pl., LXX), νεῦμα n., also with ἐπι-, ἐν-, συν -, `nod' (A., Th., X.) with νευμάτιον (Arr.); νευστικός `bending' (Ph.). Expressive enlargement νευστάζω, rarely w. ἐπι-, `nod, beckon' (Il.); cf. βαστάζω, ῥυστάζω a.o. (Schwyzer 706, Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 338, Bechtel Lex. 234).

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [767] * neu- `nod, beckon'

Etymology: The retained diphthong in νεύω as well as νευστάζω points to an orig. *νεύσω (*νεύσι̯ω?), cf. a.o. γεύομαι and εὕω (s. vv.); the late forms νένευκα, - νένευμαι are of course based on νεύω. Except the - σ-, νεύω agrees with Lat. ab-, ad-nuō \< *-neu̯ō with the same meaning (to which the simplex nuō in gramm.). νεῦμα agrees with Lat. nūmen (\< * neu(s)-mn̥) prop. `nod', `godly governing etc.'; they are however easily understandable as independent innovations. -- Far remain however both Skt. návate `go, move (oneself)' (not quite certain; Mayrhofer s.v.) and Slav., e.g. Russ. núritь `bow the head' (s. Vasmer s.v.). -- WP. 2, 323 f, Pok. 767, W.-Hofmann s. nuō. Cf. νύσσω and νυστάζω.

Grammatical information: v.

Meaning: `to travel by sea, to sail, to navigate', w. prefix also `to swim, to flow' (Il.).

Other forms: Aor. πλεῦσαι (Att.), fut. πλεύ-σομαι (Il.), - σοῦμαι (Att.), - σω (hell.), perf. πέπλευκα (S.), pass. πέπλευσμαι (youngtt.), πλευ-σθῆναι, - σθήσομαι (Arr.).

Compounds: Very often w. prefix, e.g. ἀνα-, κατα-, ἐπι-.

Derivatives: πλόος, contr. πλοῦς ( ἀνά-, ἐπί-, περί-πλέω etc.) m. `navigation, seafaring', also `traveling time, traveling wind' (IA.); compp., e.g. εὔ-πλοος `with a good seafaring, navigating well' (Erinn., Theoc.) with - ίη, - ια f. (ep. poet. Il.), περί-πλους adj. `possible to sail round' (Th.), `sailing round' (AP), also `encasing' (Hp.; cf. ἐπίπλοον). From πλόος 1. the old inherited i̯o-deriv. πλοῖον n. `craft, ship' (IA; cf. bel.) with πλοι-άριον (Ar., X.), - αρίδιον (pap.); 2. πλόϊμος `navigable' (Att.), often written πλώϊμος after πλώω etc. (cf. Arbenz 48 f.); 3. πλοώδης `swimming, flowing', i.e. `not fixed, mobile' (Hp.), s. Strömberg Wortstud. 25; 4. πλοϊκός `id.' (Suid.); but 5. πλοί̄ζω `to commit navigation' (hell.) rather for older deverb. πλωΐζω (s. πλώω). -- From πλέω also the very rare πλεῦσις (simplex only H. s. νεῦσις), a.o. in ἐπίπλευσις f. `attack at sea' (Th. 7, 36 beside ἀνάκρουσις; otherwise ἐπίπλους). On πλεύμων, πλοῦτος s. v.

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [835] * pleu- `sail, flow'

Etymology: The primary themat. root-present πλέ(Ϝ)ω agrees with Skt. plávate `swimm, flow', OCS plovǫ, pluti ' πλέω', prob. also with Lat. pluit `it rains' (from * plovit \< * plevit; cf. Ernout-Meillet s. v.); with πλεύσομαι agrees, prob. as parallel innovation, Skt. ploṣyati. Beside the nom. actionis πλό(Ϝ)ος stands in Skt. with expected oxytonesis the nom. agentis plavá- m.; with this identical Russ. plov `ship, barge' and Toch. B plewe `ship' (IE *plou̯os). Thus πλοῖον (for *πλόϜιον) = OWNo. fley n. `ship'. Furher forms, for Greek without interest, with rich lit. in WP. 2, 94f., Pok. 835ff., W.-Hofmann s. pluō, Mayrhofer s. plávate and plaváḥ, Fraenkel s. pláuti; on related rivernames, e.g. NHG Fliede(n), Krahe Beitr. z. Namenforsch. 9, 1ff. -- S. also πλώω, πλύνω; (not πολύς)}.
