Origin: IE [Indo-European] [828] * peh₂-ur, ph₂-uen-s̯ `fire'

Etymology: With πῦρ, πῠρ-ός agrees exactly Umbr. pir nom. acc. (from * pūr), abl. pur-e (from *pŭr-), thus, with secondary vowelenlargement, Arm. hur, gen. hr-oy (\< *pū̆r-o-) and OWNo. fūrr, fȳrr (\< PGm. * fūr-i-). The word was originally an heteroclitic r \/ n- stem and is still so inflected in Hitt. paḫḫu(u̯a)r, gen. paḫḫu̯enaš. Traces of this formation can still be seen in Germ.: Goth. fōn, gen. fun-ins as opposed to OHG fuir, fiur, Feuer; also in Arm.: hn-oç `fireplace, furnace' a opposed to hur (s. above); note also Toch. A pl. por-äṃ (= -n; combination of r and n?, v. Windekens IF 65, 249 ff.). The ablaut, which appears already from the above cited forms, is now reconstructed as a proterodynamic r\/n-neuter: IE *peh₂<sub>-</sub>ur: ph₂-u̯en-s; cf. Specht KZ 59, 283ff.), was simplified in Greek (the change in quantity is not old). -- Beside this neutral matter-indicating word for `fire' Indo-European had an as old word indicating fire as active entity in Lat. ignis, Skt. agní-, Lith. ugnìs, OCS ognь; a parallel double designation, which represents two different interpretations of nature, is found with the words for `water' (s. ὕδωρ).

Grammatical information: v.

Meaning: `to harden in fire, to burn to coal' (ι 328, Nic. Th. 688).

Other forms: Later πυρακτόομαι, - όω `be singed, carbonized' (D. S., Str., Plu.).

Origin: GR [a formation built with Greek elements]

Etymology: Tradit. taken as a comp. of πῦρ and ἄγειν with the meaning `turn about, around in the fire' (e.g. Bechtel Lex. s.v.), semant. and morpholog. both unsatisactory, as ἄγειν cannot mean `turn around' and a mediating *πύρακτος `turning around in fire' (Bechtel) would be without example (rather *πυρ-άκ-της, which however could hardly have meant sthing else but `fire-driver'). -- Without doubt expressive enlargement in -( α)κτέω from πυρ-άζω (EM 697, 16; Stolz WienStud. 25, 234 w. n. 1 a. lit.), *-ασσω v.t. like ὑλακτέω from ὑλάω (beside ὑλαγμός a.o.), ἀλυκτέω from ἀλύω, ἀλύσσω; on the last mentioned cases Frisk Eranos 50, 8 ff. Cf. πυρακ-τόομαι after the many intransitives in - όομαι with factitive - όω.
