As 2. member in Πανέλληνες `Panhellenes' (Β 530 beside Άχαιοί, Hes. Op. 528, Archil. 52,); cf. below; φιλ-έλλην `friend of the Hellenes' (Ion.-Att.), μισ-έλλην `enemy of the Hellenes' (X.).Compounds: As 1. member in Έλλαδ-άρχης (with ἑλλαδαρχέω) `Leader of the H.', President of the Achaeic Confederacy, the Delphic Amphiktyonie and other communities (imper. times).Derivatives: Έλλαδικός `belonging to H.' (Xenoph., Str.). - Έλλήνιος, -ά̄νιος `hellenic' (Hdt., Pi.), f. - ηνίς, -ᾱνίς (Pi., Att.), Έλληνικός `id.' (Hdt.; s. Chantr. Ét. sur le vocab. grec, s. index); denomin. verb ἑλληνίζω `speak Greek', also trans. `hellenise' (late), with ἑλληνισμός `Greek way of expression', also opposed to ἀττικισμός `Attic expression' (hell.), ἑλληνιστής `who speaks Greek', name of a Jew speaking Greek ( Act. Ap. 6, 1; oppos. Έβραῖος) etc.; - ιστί adv. `in Greek' (Pl., X.).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Like most names of lands and peoples Έλλάς and Ε῝λληνες have no etymology. - As formation in - άς (cf. Τρωάς, Φθιάς, Λευκάς etc.; Schwyzer 507f., Chantr. Form. 356) Έλλάς supposes a noun (Sommer Münch. Stud. z. Sprachwiss. 4, 1ff.). Also for Ε῝λληνες a noun will have been the basis; the deviant intonation (cf. Άθαμᾶνες, Άκαρνᾶνες, Δυμᾶνες etc., which is also found in Ἴωνες (s. v.), is mostly explained from Παν-έλληνες (like πάν-δεινος, παν-άγαθος a. o.; but Παν-αχαιοί Β 404 etc.!). The ending -ᾱν- is of course Pre-Greek. - Beside Ε῝λληνες we find Ἔλλοπες (like Δρύοπες a. o.) in Έλλοπία name of the region of Dodona (Hes. Fr. 134, 1) and of northern Euboea (Hdt. 8, 23; note the suffix - οπ-); since Arist. ( Mete. 352a 34) the area of Dodona and the basin of the Acheloos was seen as the land of origin of the Hellenes, the ἀρχαία Έλλάς. The basis of Έλλάς and Ε῝λληνες prob. is Έλλοί (Pi. Fr. 59), after H. = Ε῝λληνες οἱ ἐν Δωδώνῃ, καὶ οἱ ἱερεῖς; but perh. it is juist the consequence of the reading σ' Έλλοί for Σελλοί in Π 234, s. Leumann Hom. Wörter 40. It is obvious, to connect the Ε῝λληνες also with the Σελλοι, who live also around Dodona; Ε῝λληνες and Έλλάς would have lost the σ- through Greek development. - Further unknown, s. Wilamowitz on Eur.
