; [ per.] 3sg. imper. πεφάσθω Pl.Ti. 72d
; but part. πεφασμένος Il.14.127
, A.Pr. 843 shd. be referred to φαίνω: [tense] aor. ἐφάθην ([etym.] ἀπ-, κατ-) Arist.Int. 18b39. The [tense] pres. indic. φημί is enclit., exc. in [ per.] 2sg. [tense] pres. φῄς: φαμέν is [ per.] 1pl. [tense] pres., φάμεν poet. inf.: φαντί is [ per.] 3pl., φάντι part.

II φάσκω supplied all moods of [tense] pres. except the indic., also [tense] impf. ἔφασκον; cf. ἠμί. [ᾰ, except in φᾱσι, and in masc. and fem. part. φάς, φᾶσα: in inf. φάναι ᾰ always; φᾶναι is corrupt in Eub.119.11 codd. Ath.]:—say, affirm, assert, either abs., or folld. by inf., e. g. Λυσίθευς Μικίωνα φιλῖν ( = -εῖν) φησι IG12.924
, cf. 57.48, or acc. et inf.; the inf. is freq. omitted, σὲ κακὸν καὶ ἀνάλκιδα φήσει (sc. εἶναι) Il.8.153; also Κορινθίους τί φῶμεν; what shall we say of them? X.HG3.5.12; φ. πρός τινα, πρὸς ξεῖνον φάσθαι ἔπος ἠδ' ἐπακοῦσαι Od.17.584
: less freq. c. dat., αὐτοῖς Ev.Matt.13.28
; κατά τινος φ. to speak against him, X.Ap.25: sts. folld. by ὡς, Lys.7.19, v.l. in X. HG6.3.7; by ὅτι, Pl.Grg. 487d, Corn.ND30; by an interrog. clause, μή ποτε φάσῃς ὅ τι γίνεται αὔριον Simon.
l.c.; by part., dub. in Pl. Grg. 481c (fort. leg. θῶμεν); also parenthetic, τίνες, φῄς, ἦσαν οἱ λόγοι; Pl.Phd. 59c
.

b since what one says commonly expresses a belief or opinion, think, deem, suppose, φῆ γὰρ ὅ γ' αἱρήσειν Πριάμου πόλιν Il. 2.37
; φαίης κε ζάκοτόν τέ τιν' ἔμμεναι ἄφρονά τε you would say, would think, he was.., 3.220; ἶσον ἐμοὶ φάσθαι to say he is (i. e. fancy himself) equal to me, 1.187, 15.167; μὴ.. φαθὶ λεύσσειν think not that you see, Theoc.22.56; τί φῄς; what say you? i.e. what think you? (v. infr. 11.5); λέγ' ἀνύσας ὅ τι φῄς Ar.Pl. 349
:—so φ. δεῖν, φ. χρῆναι, deem it right, And.3.34, Isoc.3.48.

c say, i.e. write, of an author, ὡς ἔφημεν Gal.1.158
, etc.—The [voice] Med. has all these senses as well as the [voice] Act.

II Special Phrases:

1 φασί, they say, it is said, Il.5.638, Od.6.42, etc.; parenthetically, Arist.EN 1109a35, Men.Epit. 223, etc.: Prose writers use φησί when quoting, D.23.89, etc.; φησίν saith He, 1 Ep.Cor.6.16; esp. of an opponent's objection, Plu.2.112c; even after a plural, ὅ τοίνυν μέγιστον ἔχειν οἴονται.. καὶ αὐτός, φησί, τῶν εἰσιόντων ἦσθα Lib.Or.52.39
; "τὸν δὲ μετ' εἰσενόησα, ἔφη Ὅμηρος as H. said, Pl.Prt. 315b.

2 joined with a synon. Verb, ἔφη λέγων, ἔφησε λέγων, Hdt.3.156, 6.137, etc.; ἔλεγε φάς Id.1.122
; λέγει οὐδέν, φαμένη .. Id.2.22; τί ἐροῦμεν ἢ τί φήσομεν; D.8.37
, cf. 25.100; τί φῶ; τί λέξω; E.Hel. 483
.

3 in repeating dialogues the Verb commonly goes before its subject, ἔφην ἐγώ, ἔφη ὁ Σωκράτης, said I, said S., but the order is sts. inverted, ἐγὼ ἔφην, ὁ Σωκράτης ἔφη, I said, S. said.

4 inserted parenthetically, though the sentence has been introduced by λέγει, εἶπεν, etc., ὁ Ἰσχόμαχος.. εἶπεν· ἀλλὰ παίζεις μὲν σύ γε, ἔφη X.Oec.17.10
, cf. Pl.Chrm. 164e; ἡ κρίσις.. διαρρήδην λέγει διότι, φησίν, ἔδοξε τἀληθῆ εἰσαγγεῖλαι Lys.13.50
.

5 τί φημί; S.OT 1471
, and τί φῄς; Ph. 804
, E.Hel. 706 (dub.), are used extra metrum, as exclamations.

6 κυριώτατα φάναι, in parenthesis, strictly speaking, Ph.2.374; ὡς οὕτω φάναι, = ὡς εἰπεῖν, ἅπασαι ὡς οὕτω φάναι practically all, Gal.Vict.Att.9; συνελόντα (v.l. -όντι) φάναι, = συνελόντι εἰπεῖν, Id.16.502.

7 Οἰδίπουν.. ἂν μόνον φῶ if I only mention Oedipus, Antiph.191.6, cf. Pl.Cra. 411a, 435a.

III like κατάφημι, say yes, affirm, assert, καὶ τοὺς φάναι and they said yes, Hdt.8.88; καί φημι κἀπόφημι S.OC 317
; ἔγωγέ φημι Pl. Grg. 526c
; φάναι τε καὶ ἀπαρνεῖσθαι Id.Tht. 165a
: c. inf., φῂς ἢ καταρνεῖ μὴ δεδρακέναι τάδε; S.Ant. 442
; but οὔ φημι means say no, deny, refuse, c. inf., ἡ Πυθίη οὐκ ἔφη χρήσειν said she would not.., Hdt.1.19, cf. 8.2; οὐκ ἔφασαν ἐπιτρέψαι Lys.13.15
, 47 (leg. - τρέψειν): c. acc. et inf., οὔ φημ' Ὀρέστην σ' ἐνδίκως ἀνδρηλατεῖν A.Eu. 221
, cf. Hdt.2.63: abs., κἂν μὲν μὴ φῇ if he says no, Ar.Av. 555 (anap.); ἢ φάθι ἢ μὴ ἃ ἐρωτῶ answer me yes or no, Pl.Grg. 475e; so in answers, φημί or
οὕτως φημί
yes, Id.Phdr. 270c
, al., Grg. 500e; οὐκ ἔφη he said no, Id.Phd. 118a.— In this sense [dialect] Att. writers, besides [tense] pres., mostly use [tense] fut. φήσω and [tense] aor. ἔφησα, but in [tense] impf., inf., and part. [tense] pres., to avoid ambiguity, they prefer ἔφασκον, φάσκειν, φάσκων (v. φάσκω): φάναι is distd. fr. φάσκειν, e.g. ἔφη σπουδάζειν he said he was in haste, ἔφασκε σπουδάζειν he alleged he was in haste; but ἔφησθα is found in this sense, X.An.1.6.7.

IV command, order, ἔφην τῷ Ὀρθοβούλῳ ἐξαλεῖψαί με Lys.16.13
(so ἔφασαν, v. l. for ἔφρασαν in X.Cyr.4.6.11).

11 βραχύς

βραχύς

Grammatical information: adj.

Meaning: `short' (Hdt., Pi.)

Other forms: Comp. βραχύτερος, - τατος, βράχιστος. ἅπ. λεγ. βράσσων τε νόος (Κ 226), (after θάσσων?), s. Seiler, Steigerungsformen 43. Aeol. βροχύς

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [750] *mr̥ǵhú- `short'

Etymology: Agrees with Skt. múhuḥ, múhu adv. `suddenly', muhūrtá- n. `short time, moment', MInd. form for *mr̥hú-, Av. mǝrǝzu- `short' in mǝrǝzu-ǰīti-, mǝrǝzu-ǰ(ī)va- `short life' resp. `shortlived' (cf. ὁ βίος βραχύς Hp.), Sogd. murzak `id.'; OHG murg(i) `kurz', OE myrge `kurzweilig', Goth. *maúrgus in ga-maúrgjan `shorten'; also Lat. brevis \< *mreǵhu̯-i-.

12 γλαφυρός

γλαφυρός

Grammatical information: adj.

Meaning: `hollow(ed)' (Il.), `polished, smooth, refined, elegant' (Ar.).

Derivatives: γλαφυρότης `neatness, elegance' (Ph.) and γλαφυρία `id.' (Plu.). - Rare γλάφυ n. `hollow, cavern' (Hes. Op. 533) and γλάφω `hollow' (Hes. Sc. 431), also διαγλάψασα, late `engrave' ( ClassRev. 12, 282; Koptos II^p).

Origin: XX [etym. unknown]

Etymology: Dissimilated from - υλός (?) acc. to Leumann ( Glotta 32, 223 A. 2), from an u-stem ( λιγυρός: λιγύς)?. Perhaps γλάφυ is old and represents this u-stem; γλάφω, a ἅπ. λεγ. `hollow', can be secondary. Later the verb means (though not quite certainly) `engrave. It looks as a cross between γλύφω and γράφω. The development to `smooth' etc. is rather surprising. - Compare Slavic words for `hollow, gnaw', e.g. Sloven. glóbati. (But Russ. globá `cross-beam' does not fit in, Vasmer Russ. et. Wb. s. v.). DELG thinks that υ stands for α (Lejeune, Phonétique 1969, 180, 315f.) or a dissimilation of *γλυφυ-. Doubtful.

13 ἔναρα

ἔναρα

Grammatical information: n. pl.

Meaning: `the weapons of a fallen opponent' (Il., Hes. Sc. 367).

Compounds: As 1. member in ἐναρο-κτάντας, of death (A. Fr. 151 [lyr.]), ἐναρη-φόρος `carrying the ἔ.' ( APl.); also ἐναρσ-φόρος surname of Ares (Hes. Sc. 192), also name of a hero (Alcm.) with σ in the compound after ἐγχεσπάλος (Leumann Glotta 15, 155f., Schwyzer 336).

Derivatives: Denomin. verbs: ἐναίρω, aor. ἐναρεῖν ( ἐξ- Hes. Sc. 329) `take away the ἔ.', euphemistic for `kill' (Il.); also ἐναρί-μβροτος `killing men' (Pi.; after φθεισί-μβροτος); (younger) ἐναρίζω, aor. ἐναρίξαι (Il.; in Hom. often ἐξ-; also ἀπ-, ἐπ-, κατ-) `id.'.

Origin: XX [etym. unknown]

Etymology: Unknown. Schwyzer IF 30, 440f. compared Skt. sánara-, ἅπ. λεγ. (RV. 1, 96, 8) of uncertain meaning. Connection with Skt. sanóti `win' (cf. ἄνυμι) would give for ἔναρα the original meaning `gain, booty'; one would have to accept psilosis. - Hardly an r-n-stem with Schwyzer 518. On the meaning Trümpy Fachausdrücke 86ff. S. also ἔντεα.

14 εὐθενέω

εὐθενέω

Grammatical information: v.

Meaning: `thrive, flourish', of animals and plants, also metaph. of towns, peoples etc. (A., Arist.);

Compounds: as 1. member in εὐθηνι-άρχης `commissioner of (corn)supply' with - αρχέω, - ία, - ικός (pap.; also εὑθενι-).

Derivatives: εὐθένεια, - ία (- ίη Epigr. I^a) `thriving situation, fullness, supply, annona' (Arist. as v. l. beside εὐθηνία, pap. of Rom. times) with εὐθενιακός (pap.). - Also εὐθηνέω `id.' (h. Hom. 30, 10, Hdt., Hp.) with εὐθηνία = εὐθενεια, - ία (Arist. as v. l.); - rare and late adj.: εὐθενής εὐπαθοῦσα, ἰσχυρά H. with εὐθενέστατος (pap. VI^p), εὐθηνός `thriving' (Hdn. Epim. 175, Lyd. Ost. [VI^p]).

Origin: XX [etym. unknown]

Etymology: The explanation depends of the relation between these forms. If the forms with - ε- are original, εὐθενέω will be a denominative of εὐθενής, to which was made the abstract εὐθένεια, - ία. We would have to start from a noun *θένος besie φόνος in the ἅπ. λεγ. φόνον αἵματος (Π 162), if this is `mass of blood', which is not certain, s. s. v. That would give *θένος: εὐθενής: εὐθένεια: εὐθενέω like μένος: εὐμενής: εὐμένεια: εὐμενέω. But εὐθενής is rare and late, while εὐθενέω is older. Then the agreement with Skt. ā-hanás- `thriving, full' (Bechtel Lex. 78f. with Fick BB 8, 330), IE *- gʷhenes- becomes doubtfull. To ā-hanás- and εὑ-θενής are further connected Skt. ghana- `solid, thick, full of' (ep. class.; very doubtfull RV. 1, 8, 3), NPers. ā-ganiš `full', ā-gandan `fill on'; from Balto-Slavic further Lith. ganà `enough', OCS goněti `be enough'; finally Alb. zânë `solid, thick', IE * gʷhen- (Jokl Mélanges Pedersen 131) and Arm. y-ogn `multum, very, much' (the last quite uncertain). Unclear are PN in - φόντης as Κρεσ-φόντης (cf. on κράτος), Πολυ-φόντης as well as φανᾶν θέλειν H. Far remain the unclear ἄφενος and παρθένος (s. vv.). The - η- in εὐθηνέω etc. can be old lengthened grade; secondary lengthening (after κτῆνος, μῆλα etc.?; Fraenkel Lexis 3, 61) cannot be excluded. - If we assume an original η-vowel, εὑθενέω could be a comparable derailment (after σθένος?; Sommer Lautstud. 66) or old weak grade (Schwyzer 340f.); Gr. *θῆνος has been compared with Lat. fēnus `produce' (to fē-līx, s. θῆλυς, and θῆ-σθαι) which could be phonetically and semantically identical (cf. Fick 1, 415, Froehde BB 21, 326f.), if the connection with Skt. ā-hanás- etc. is given up. - See Bq s. v., Fraenkel Lit. et. Wb. s. ganà.

15 ἥδομαι

ἥδομαι

Grammatical information: v.

Meaning: `rejoice, have pleasure',

Other forms: Dor. ἅδ-, Boeot. (Corinn.) Ϝάδ- ( γάδεται ἥδεται H.), aor. ἡσθῆναι (IA.), fut. ἡσθήσομαι (S., Pl.), aor. med. ἥσατο (ι 353)

Compounds: also with prefix, esp. συν-; rarely act. ἥδω, ἧσαι, ἥσω `have pleasure' (Antipho Soph., hell.; after τέρπω a. o.; Schwyzer-Debrunner 228). As 2. member - ηδής, generally connected with ἡδύς or ἥδομαι: ἀ-ηδής `unpleasant' (IA.), μελι-ηδής `as sweet as honey', θυμ-ηδής `heart-pleasing' a. o.

Derivatives: 1. ἦδος n. `pleasure' (Il.; on the absence of aspir. and the doubtful traces of the digamma Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 184 and 151); in the meaning `vinegar' backformation from ἡδύς, s. v.; 2. ἡδονή, Dor. ἁδονά `pleasure' (IA., Dor.; Schwyzer 490, Chantraine Formation 20) with ἡδονίς = ἀφύδιον (Cyran. 18), ἡδονικός (Arist.). 3. ἁδοσύνα ἡδονή H. 4. ἥσθημα `id.' (Eup.). 5. ἡστικός `pleasant' (S. E.).

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [1039] * sueh₂d- `sweet'

Etymology: An exact formal counterpart is Skt. ἅπ. λεγ. svādate `become tasty(?)' (RV. 9, 68, 2; of soma); much more usual however is svadate, -ti `enjoy, taste well' resp. `make tasty, sweeten'. On -a- see Lubotsky, MSS 40 (1981) 133-8. The 2. member - ηδης agrees with Skt. prá-svādas- `pleasant' (RV. 10, 33, 6); the nasal suffix in ἡδ-ονή is seen in Skt. svā́d-ana- `making tasteful' (RV. 5, 7, 6), - anam n. `be tasteful' (class.). - See ἡδύς and ἁνδάνω, also ἀδημονέω.

16 καναχή

καναχή

Grammatical information: f.

Meaning: `noise, sharp sound' (Il.).

Other forms: Dor. -ά

Compounds: As 1. member in καναχή-πους, Dor. - χά- `with sounding feet' (Alcm.)

Derivatives: καναχέω, aor. - ῆσαι (τ 469, Cratin., A. R.), lengthened καναχίζω (Μ 36, κ 399 [v. l.], Hes. Sc. 373) `ring, clash' (cf. Schwyzer 736, Porzig Satzinhalte 231); aor. δια-, ἐγ-, ἐκ-κανάξαι of gurging and gulping sounds (E. Kyk. 152 u. 157, Ar., Eup.), κανάξαι after Poll. 10, 85 = τὸ ἐκκενῶσαι η ἐκπιεῖν; κανάξας ἐγχέας H.; καναχηδά `with noise' (Hes. Th. 367 a. o.), - ηδόν `id.' (D. P., Aret.) and the ἅπ. λεγ. καναχής (A. Ch. 152 [lyr.], of δάκρυ), καναχός (Nic. Th. 620; of βάτραχοι), both first from καναχέω; καναχισμός ( Orac. Chald.) from καναχίζω.

Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]

Etymology: Expressive formation like στοναχή (: στενάχω; cf. Chantraine Formation 403) from a verb `sing, cling etc.' in Lat. canō = Celt., e. g. OIr. canim, from where names for `cock', Gr. ἠϊ-κανός (s. v.), Goth. hana = NHG Hahn etc. More forms Pok. 525f., W.-Hofmann s. canō. - Fur. 343 compares κόναβος and concludes that the word is Pre-Greek.

17 ὄνομαι

ὄνομαι

Grammatical information: v.

Meaning: `to scold, to blame, to insult' (Hom., also Hdt.).

Other forms: Aor. ὀνόσ(σ)ασθαι ( ὤνατο P 25; cf. below), fut. ὀνόσ-σομαι, with κατα- in κατ-ώνοντο, -ονοσθῃ̃ς (Hdt. 2, 172 a. 136).

Derivatives: Verbal adj. ὀνο-τός (Pi., Call., A. R.), ὀνο-σ-τός (Ι 164, Lyc.; - σ- analogical, s. Schwyzer 503; cf. also below and Ammann Μνήμης χάριν 1, 15); dental formation in ὀνοτ-άζω = ὄνομαι (h. Merc., Hes., A.); ὀνητά μεμπτά H., prob. after the oppositum ἀγητά (if not false for ὀνοστά with Baunack Phil. 70, 464 f.); ὄνοσις f. `blame' (Eust.).

Origin: IE [Indo-European]X [probably] [79] * h₃enh₃- `blame, revile'

Etymology: All forms except ὤνατο (rather aor. then ipf.), ὄναται ἀτιμάζεται H. and the debated οὔνεσθε (Ω 241) are based on ὀνο- (further Schwyzer 681 w. n. 4, ChantraineGramm. hom. 1, 295f. a. 382); ὀνα- is not an old ablautvariant (Schw. 362, Persson Beitr. 2, 669) but a sec. deviation. -- Without certain non-Greek agreement. Quite hypothetic is the comparison with some Celt. words, e.g. MIr. on `shame', anim (a- reduced grade?) `blemish, fault'. The comparison with the not quite reliable GAv. ptc. nadant- `slandering, reviling' (ἅπ. λεγ.) and with Skt. níndati `blame, revile' (as ní-nd- ati; but rather ní-n-d- ati, s. ὄνειδος and Mayrhofer s. níndati and nádati) is based on the wrong assumption, that ὀνόσσ-ασθαι, - ομαι and ὀνοστός go back on ὀνοδ-, instead of being analogical. Uncertain is connection with Hitt. hanna- `contend, contest' Puhvel, Hitt.Et.Dict. 3, 83. -- Details w. older lit. in Bq, WP. 1, 180, Pok. 779, also W.-Hofmann s. nota. Far remains ὄνομα, s.

18 ὄρχος

ὄρχος

Grammatical information: m.

Meaning: `row of vines or fruit trees' (η 127, ω 341, Hes. Sc. 296, B., Ar., X., Thphr.);

Other forms: ὀρχός m. `border of the eyelid, ταρσός' (Poll. 2, 69); ὀρχάς περίβολος, αἱμασιά H., ὀρχάδος στέγης (S. Fr. 812); ὀρχηδόν (Hdt. 7, 144), after H., = ἡβηδόν, usu. explained as `in a row, general'.

Derivatives: Besides ὄρχατος m. `ordened plantation, garden' (η 112, ω 222, AP), pl. `rows of garden plants, fruit trees, vines' (Ξ 123, E. Fr. 896, 2, Moschio Trag. 6, 12), metaph. ὀδόντων, κιόνων ὄρχατος (AP, Ach. Tat.). With μ-suffix: ὀρχμαί φραγμοί, καλαμῶνες, φάραγγες, σπῆλυγξ H.; ὀρχμούς λοχμῶδες καὶ ὄρειον χωρίον οὑκ ἐπεργαζόμενον ( Lex.); in the same meaning ὀρχάμη (Poll. 7, 147).

Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]

Etymology: If the ἅπ. λεγ. ὀρχηδόν is rightly understood as `following the row', is for ὄρχος also the general meaning `row' to be accepted; from there, prob. as collective abstract, ὄρχατος prop. `order of rows (of plants)'. Then it seems hardly possible, to bring the above words together under a notion `fence, enclosure', which, thought obvious for ὄρχατος in the sense of `garden' and acceptable for the rare ὀρχός, ὀρχάς, hardly fits ὄρχος (pace Porzig Satzinhalte 310). Thus the connection with IE *u̯er-ǵh- `turn, wind together, fence in' in Lith. veržiù `fence in, string' (diff. s. εἴργω), Germ., e.g. OWNo. virgill `snare', NHG er-würgen a.o. (Brugmann IF 15, 84ff., WP. 1, 272f., Pok.1154 f.) is weakened; doubtful as well becomes the comparison with Lith. sérgmi `preserve, watch over' (Fraenkel KZ 72, 193 ff. with Prellwitz). Attractive Mann Lang. 26, 385: to Alb. varg `row, wreath, chain'. -- Commonly accepted is the connection with the town-name Όρχομενός (older Έρχ-, cf. Schwyzer 255; Illyr. Όργομεναί, Krahe ZNF 7, 25 n. 4 a. 11, 81). S. also εἴργω, ἔρχατος, ὄρχαμος. - As there is no IE etymon, it seems more probable that the word (note the meanings!; and th name of the town) is Pre-Greek.

19 πρόμος

πρόμος

Grammatical information: m.

Meaning: `protagonist' (Hom.), `commander' (trag.).

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [814] * promos `first'

Etymology: Usually (since Corssen KZ 3, 246, Curtius a.o.) with Umbr. promom `primum', Goth. OWNo. fram `forward' identified as old superlative of IE * pro in πρό etc. Beside it with zero grade the hapax πράμος (s.v.) like Goth. fruma `first, earlier'(?). -- Because in Hom. the word means only `champion (Vorkämpfer)' the hypothesis must be considered, that πρόμος was simply shortened from πρόμαχος (Hentze in Fick Curt. Stud. 9, 196, Schulze KZ 32, 195 = Kl. Schr. 310, Bechtel Lex. s.v., Risch $ 85) ; the meaning `leader' would be due to misunderstanding of the ep. word. -- The metr. difficult ἅπ. λεγ. πρόμνοι A. Supp. 904 ( ἀγοὶ πρόμος; lyr.) may be a fault of the tradition; diff. Forssman KZ 79, 11 ff. (s. πρυμνός).

Grammatical information: adj.

Meaning: `taper, bendable, slender' (ep. Ψ 583; Treu Von Homer zur Lyrik 171 etc.).

Other forms: βράδινος (Sapph.). Beside it ῥοδανός adjunct of δονακεύς (Σ 576; vv.ll. ῥαδινός, ῥαδαλός); to which ῥοδάν-η f. `weft thread' (Batr. a.o.) with - ίζω (sch. a.o.), - ιστήριον (gloss.); also ῥαδανός, -η, - ίζω (II.), - ᾶται πλανᾶται H., βραδανίζει ῥιπίζει, τινάσσει H.

Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]

Etymology: Formations like πυκ-ινός, πιθ-ανός a.o. (Chantraine Form. 197f., 201) from unknown basis (*ῥαδεῖν, *ῥάδος, *ῥόδος?). Since Düntzer KZ 13, 6 f. connected with the semant. sightly unclear περι-ρρηδής (s.v.); to this (Lobeck Paralip. 156) also ῥαδές τὸ ἀμφοτέρως ἐγκεκλιμένον H. It may also be connected with ῥάδαμνος (s.v.), with Düntzer (so to be separated from ῥάδιξ?). Further perh. also the Arc. PN Ϝράδων. Unclear ῥαδανῶροι οἱ τῶν λαχάνων κηπουροί H. (rejected by Bechtel Dial. 2,420; to be rejected v. Blumenthal Hesychst. 11). Improbable on ῥαδινός: ῥαδανός Güntert Reimwortbildungen 129. -- From other languages have been adduced: Skt. ávradanta 3. pl. ipf. approx. `loosened, made themselves loose (stagger?)' ἅπ. λεγ. (RV2,24,3); Germ., Goth. wraton ' πορεύεσθαι, διοδεύειν', OWNo. rata `id.'; also Lith. randù, ràsti `find' (s. Fraenkel s.v.); all hypothetic. Details in Bechtel Lex. s. περιρρηδής; older discussion by Curtius 352. -- (Hardly further to u̯er- `turn, bow' WP. 1, 273f., Pok. 1153.) -- The variation *u̯rad-\/u̯rod- shows that it is a Pre-Greek word.
