κονι-ορ-τός

Grammatical information: m.

Meaning: `anniversary, year' (Il.; Risch Mus. Helv. 3, 254).

Derivatives: ἐνιαύσιος, Delph. Coan - τιος `(one)year, a year long, every year' (π 454), ἐνιαυσιαῖος `a year long' (Arist.; s. Chantr. Form. 49); denomin. verb ἐνιαυτίζομαι, - ίζω `pass a year' (Pl. Com.).

Origin: XX [etym. unknown]

Etymology: A new expression for `year', prop. `year-day' (cf. Bechtel Lex. s. v.). - For the formation cf. κονι-ορ-τός, βου-λυ-τός etc. (Schwyzer 501), it seems to contain a word for `year', ἔνος (H., Sch. Theoc. 7, 147), seen in several compounds: δίενος `διετής' (Thphr.), ἑπτάενον ἑπταετῆ H., τετράενος (Call.); as σ-stem τετράενες n. (Theocr. 7, 147), ὕπενες εἰς τετάρτην H., s. also ἦνις. The same word prob. also in Baltic and Germanic, e. g. Lith. pér-nai `πέρυσι' (* per-h₁n-, with acute from the laryngeal), Russ. loni \< * ol-ni `of the past year', Goth. fram fair-nin jera `from for- (= past) year'. - The 2. member in ἰαύω, either the present-stem ἐν-ιαυτός (Meillet MSL 23, 274f.) or with the verbal root (cf. κονι-ορ-τός etc.s. above) with - ι- as compound vowel [hardly possible]: ἐν-ι-αυ-τός (Schwyzer 424 n. 5, 448). But a meaning *"Jahresruhe" (`years rest') is not quite clear. - After Brugmann IF 15, 87ff., 17, 319f. and many others to ἐνιαύω as *"Rast-, Ruhestation der Sonne, Jahreswende"; a το-formation from a present would be remarkable. Hardly with Prellwitz a. o. from ἐνι αὑτῳ̃ "at the same point (as in spring)"; diff. Murray JournofHellStud. 71, 120. Doubts in Szemerényi, Sprache 11 (1965) 7f.

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [559] * konis `ashes'

Etymology: κόνις differs from Lat. cinis, - eris m. (f.) in the o-vocalism (e: o); the s-stem seen in ciner-is and cinis-culus can also be assumed for κονίσ-σαλος, κεκόνισ-μαι, κονί̄ω \< *κονισ-ι̯ω, κονί-α \< *κονισ-α (details in Scheller Oxytonierung 49f.). The word was perhaps originally an neutr. is-(i-?)stem; s. Benveniste Origines 34, Specht Ursprung 298. The basis may hace been a lost verb meaning `scratch, plane, scour'; one also compares - κναίω.

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [326] * h₃reu- `rise, set in movement'

Etymology: Its general o-vowel reminds of ὄρνυμι and ὄλλυμι, στόρνυμι, κορέννυμι a.o. and points to * h₃-. Traces of an ε-grade have been supposed in ἔρετο ὡρμήθη H. a.o. (s. ἐρέθω) as well as in Λα-έρ-της (s. λαός; cf. below). The general structure of the IE nu-verbs as well as the comparison with Skt. r̥-nó-ti `rise, move (onself)' give an original *ὄ῎ρ-νυ-μι ( *h₃r̥-n-(e)u-; not *αρνυμι). An orig. *ἴρνυμι with ι as reduced vowel as in κίρνημι (s. on κεράννυμι) Fick BB 29, 197 finds support in the Zeusepithet Έπιρνύτιος Ζεὺς ἐν Κρήτῃ H., what in spite of widespread agreement (Bechtel Lex. 252, WP. 1, 137, Schwyzer 352 a. 695) is to be called quite arbitrary. -- An analysis ὄρ-ν-υ-μι gives the possibility, to connect the aorist ὀροῦ-σαι (to which the later and rare ὀρούω) as o-coloured full grade (* h₃rou-; Persson Beitr. 1, 285; 2, 738; s. also Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 374 w. n. 1 a. lit.); cf. further κρούω, κολούω a.o. (Schwyzer 683 w. lit.). -- Comparisons outside Greek do not help much: beyond the pair ὄρ-νυ-μι: r̥-ṇó-ti are to be mentioned from Skt.: ὦρτο: ā́rta, ὤρ-ε-το: ā́r-a-ta (certainly innovations), ὄρ-ωρα: ā́ra, ὦρσε: ārṣ-īt (gramm.). Heth. ar-nu-mi `move on, away or here' is phonetically uncertain and can also be connected with ἄρνυμαι (s. v.). For ὀρούω we compare Lat. ruō `fall down, hurry'. -- Further material (but not from a root "of moving" er-) in WP. 1, 136ff. (w. rich lit.), Pok. 326ff., W.-Hofmann s. orior and 1. ruō; older lit. in Bq. -- Cf. ὀρίνω and ὄρος, also 1. οὖρος.

Origin: XX [etym. unknown]

Etymology: Popular formations in - ίς resp. - ιχος ( ἀηδονίς, κόψιχος etc.; Chantraine 344 a. 403, Schwyzer 465 a. 498), first from an λ-stem (unless rather with complete - αλίς as in συκ-αλίς, δορκ-αλίς [: δορκ-άς] a.o.), lastly from a noun *ὀρτος of unknown meaning. The obvious connection with ὄρνυμαι `rise, come into movement' (cf. κονι-ορ-τός, θέ-ορ-τος) does not mean much semantically. Cf. Baunack Phil. 70, 465 f.
