Origin: IE [Indo-European] [1013f] * (s)teg- `cover, roof'.

Etymology: With the primary themat. root present στέγω, beside which appear only late incidental non-present forms (for these στεγ-άσαι etc.), agrees Skt. sthagati `cover, conceal', which is however attested only in gramm. (Dhatup.) and by the unpalatalised g makes the impression of an innovation (beside sthagayati); cf. also below). Beside this stands in Latin the s-less tegō, aor. tēxī `cover etc.' (old athemat. presenf? Ernout-Meillet s.v.). Also for τέγος there is outside Greek an agreement, i. e. in. Celt., e.g. OIr. tech `house', IE *tégos- n. The well adapted στέγη might also, though in this form isolated, be inherited from IE. (original root noun ? Ernout-Meillet l. c.). Further the Greek forms can be explained as newly created derivations of a very lively root. We may still mention (for Greek unimportant): Lat. (with old lenghtened grade resp o-ablaut) tēgula, toga; to this as innovation tēctum (Gr. *στεκτός ghostword!); Germ., e.g. OHG dah n. `roof' (IE * togo-m), to which (as denominative or iterative) decchen ' decken'; Balt., e.g. Lith. stógas m. `roof' (IE * stogo-with Kortlandt's law). Further forms w. lit. in Bq, WP. 2, 620f., Pok. 1013f., W.-Hofmann and Ernout-Meillet s. tegō; also Fraenkel s. stíegti o n supp. Lith. *stė́gti. For non-IE. origin of Skt. sthagayati Kuiper Sprachgesch. u. Wortbed. 249. -- Lat. LW [loanword] stega `cover' (from στέγη), segestre, - rum, tegestrum `cover from skin' (from στέγαστρον).
