Origin: IE [Indo-European] [778] * h₃emh₃- `insist, urge'

Etymology: With ὀμό-σαι agrees in formation ἀρό-σαι `plough'; thus the disyllabic ὀλέ-σαι στορέ-σαι a.o. with different vowel; on ὀμο- rests the future ὀμό[σ]-ομαι, to which analogically ὀμεῖται was created for *ὀμοῦται (Schwyzer 784 n. 3; diff. Sánchez Ruipérez Emer. 18, 406 f.; see also Wackernagel Unt. 3f. and Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 62 a. 451). The present ὄμνυμι like ὄλλυμι etc. (Schwyzer 363); the perfect is clearly innovated. The further history of the word remains unclear, as there is no convincing etymology. -- Since Aufrecht RhM 40, 160 one connects generally ὄμνυμι, ὀμόσαι with the Skt. disyllabic athem. root-present ámī-ti about `press, urge' (after Neisser BB 30, 299ff., Renou JournAs. 1939, 183 f., Benveniste Revue de l'hist. des relig. 134, 81 ff. a.o. however `seize with force'), beside which sometimes `assure urgently' (also `swear'?) v. t. This interpretation is now generally accepted. S. Hiersche REGr. 71, 35 ff. and Hoffman, KZ 83(1969)193f. Cf. ὀμοίϊος, ὀμοκλή; s. also on ὅρκος.
