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

Etymology: The primary thematic present λέπω, from which all verbal forms were derived ( λέλαμμαι, - λαπῆναι innovations after ἔστραμμαι, στραφῆναι etc.), has no direct agreements outside Greek. There are a few nominal formations, which resemble the Greek forms: Lith. lãpas `leaf', Alb. lapë `rag, leaf, peritoneum' (: λοπός), Lith. lõpas `rag, piece' (: λῶπος; also OE lōf m. `band of the forehead'??, Holthausen IF 32, 340), with Russ. lápotь `shoe of bark' (lapotók `rag, piece'); quite doubtful OE leber, læfer f. `rush, cane, metal plate' (: λέπρα?; Holthausen IF 48, 255). With λέπος one compared also Lat. s-stem lepōs `fine-ness, delicacy', and the Slav. extension in Russ. lépest `rag, piece, leaf of a flower'. Given the productivity of these formations and the varying meanings we may have parallel creations. - Further, partly very doubtful and debated forms in WP. 2, 429f., Pok. 678, W.-Hofmann s. lepidus, Fraenkel Lit. et. Wb. s. lãpas, lõpas, also lèpti `be coddled', Vasmer Russ. et. Wb. s. lépest, lápotь, lópotõk; with rich lit. - We can safely conclude that the verb is not IE: there is hardly a formal agreement, nor does the meaning agree well. So the verb will be Pre-Greek. Note the forms λεπάγιον, λεπακινός, λέπασμα, λέπυρον, λεπύχανον, λέπρα, λώψ, λῶπος etc. The verb may be compared with ὀλόπτω and ὀλούφω, which would also point to a non-IE word.

Grammatical information: n.

Meaning: `length' (Od.).

Dialectal forms: Dor. μᾶκος (Archyt.)

Compounds: Often as 2. member, e.g. περι-μήκης, Dor. - μάκης `very long, very high' (Il), with expressive enlargement περιμήκ-ετος `id.' (Hom., Arat.), after πάχετος, ἀριδείκετος, ἀμαιμάκετος a. o. (Schwyzer 501, Seiler Steigerungsformen 75).

Derivatives: Beside μῆκος the sup. μήκιστος, Dor. μάκιστος `longest, highest, greatest' (Il.) with Μηκιστεύς PN (Il.; Boßhardt 93 f.) beside the comp. μάσσων, μᾶσσον (θ 203 etc.; after ἆσσον); to μακρός (s.v.) after ἐλάσσων, πάσσων, θάσσων; besides the secondary μακρό- τατος, - τερος. -- Old denominative μηκύνω, Dor. μακύνω, rarely w. prefix, e.g. ἀπο-, ἐπι-, `lengten, stretch out' (Pi., IA.) with the rare a. late prosodic terms μήκ-υνσις (Sch.), - υσμός (Eust.) `lengthening', - υντικός `which can be lengthened' (A. D.). Further derivations, also rare a. late: μηκεδανός `long' (AP, Nonn.), for μακεδνός after ἠπεδανός a. o. (Risch $38, Specht Ursprung 199); μηκ-ικός `regarding the length' (Procl.), - όθεν `from afar' (Aesop., Paul. Aeg.), - ότης f. `length' (Gal.).

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [699] *meh₂ḱ-os, mh₂ḱros `long, length'.

Etymology: Over against μῆκος stands with short vowel Av. masah- n. `length, greatness'; thus against μήκιστος Av. masišta-, OP maθ išta- (like comp. masyå, pos. mas-). Also elsewhere we find short vowels, not only in inherited and with the s-stem alternating r-stem μακρός (s. v.), but also in Lat. maciēs `leanness', maceō `be lean' and in Hitt. mak-l-ant- `lean'. As full grade formation, however, μῆκος agrees with the great majority of old s-stems (s. e.g. Schwyzer 511 f.). -- WP. 2, 223- Pok. 699- W.-Hofmann s. macer ; on μήκιστος, μάσσων Schwyzer 538, Seiler Steigerungsformen 74ff. a. 21 f. So for μῆκος we posit * meh₂k-, but this does not explain Av. masah-, and μακρός only if mh₂ḱ-ro- would give μακρο-; cf. on μέτρον.

Grammatical information: adj.

Meaning: `equal, level, smooth' (ι 327).

Other forms: ὁμαλής `id.' (Pl., X., Arist.; innovation, Schwyzer 513).

Compounds: As 2. member e.g. in ἀν-ώμαλος `unequal' (IA.; comp. length.).

Derivatives: ὁμαλ-ότης, - ητος f. `equality, even surface' (Pl., Arist.), - εύς m. `leveller' (who levels the bottom of the acker, pap. III^a; Mayser I: 3, 15). Denominative Verbs: 1. ὁμαλ-ίζω, also w. δι-, ἐξ- a.o., `to level, to balance' (X., Arist.) with ὁμαλ-ισμός m. `levelling' (LXX, S.E.), - ιξις f. `levelling' (Delph., Didyma, - ιστῆρες m. pl. `instruments for levelling' ( Gloss.), - ιστρον H.; hardky to λίστρον. 2. ὁμαλ-ύνω, also w. δι-, προ-, συν-, `to make equal, to make level' (Hp., Pl., Arist.; Fraenkel Denom. 36f.) with - υντικός `equational' (Gal.). 3. *ἀν-ομαλ-όω in ἀνομάλω-σις f. `equalisation' (Arist.).

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [902] * somh₂(e)lo- `level, smooth'

Etymology: Identical with Lat. similis `similar' (if - lis \< - los) in formation; in any case with o -ablaut from the l-stem in Lat. semel `once', Goth. simle `one time' = `once' etc.; beside it an n-stem in Germ., e.g. OWNo. saman `together etc.' (Benveniste Origines 43). Arm. amol `harnessed pair of cows' (Adontz Mél. Boisacq 1, 10) must remain far for its meaning, cf. Dumézil BSL 39, 241 f.

Grammatical information: adj.

Meaning: `soft, gentle, mild' (Pi.).

Other forms: πραΰς, πρηΰς (ep. Ion., lyr., hell.) -- Compar. forms πραό-(πραΰ-, πρηΰ)τερος, - τατος (πράϋστος Phrygia); adv. πρά-ως, rarely - έως; also - όνως (Ar., Lys.; after εὑδαιμόν-ως a.o.).

Dialectal forms: Att.; f. - εῖα, pl. - έων, - έσι.

Compounds: Also as 1. member (mostly late), e.g. πραΰ-μητις `mild-tempered' (Pi.); to πρευμενής s. v.

Derivatives: πρα-ότης (Att.), - ύτης (LXX) f. `mild temper'; πραΰνω, Ion. πρηΰνω, also w. κατα- (rarely ἀπο-, δια- a.o.) `to make mild, to soothe' (Hes., h. Merc. 417) with πρά-(πρή-)υνσις f., - υσμός m. `the soothing', - υντικός `soothing' (Arist., medic.), - υντής m. (EM).

Origin: XX [etym. unknown]

Etymology: Unexplained. Of old (Curtius 283 with Bopp and Pott; s. Bq) connected with a verb `like, love' in Goth. frijōn, which is neither formally nor as regards the meaning unobjectionable. The o-stem πρᾶος developed perh. from the older υ-stem πραΰς, prob. through the adv. πράως, which may orig. have been contracted from πραέως and which can belong to πραΰς; this may have lead to the adj. πρᾶος, - ον; s. Egli Heteroklisie 100 ff. w. extensive treatment. The not rare ι subscriptum in πρᾳ̃ος is secondary (from ῥᾳων?; s. Debrunner IF 40 Anz. 13f.; alternative explanation in Egli 105 f.). After Osthoff MU 6, 89ff. however to Skt. á-prāyu- `uncessant, careful', which however belongs to Skt. pra-yu- `hold far, be absentminded, careless'; s. Mayrhofer s.v.
