Other forms: only inf. ἐσ-πιφράναι (Arist.), besides - φρέω in εἰσ-έφρουν (D.), - εφρούμην (E.). Further only future- and aorist-forms, always w. prefix, esp. εἰσ- ( ἐπ-εισ- a.o.) and ἐκ-, but also δια- and ἀπο-: εἰσ-, ἐκ-, δια-φρήσω; ἀπο-, εἰσ-, ἐξ- έφρησα, ἐκ-φρησθῆναι; also ( ἐπ-)εισ-, ἐξ-έφρηκα with subj. ἐπ-εσ-φρῶ, ptc. ἐπ-εισ-φρείς, inf. εἰσ-φρῆναι (for - φρεῖναι? H.), ipv. ἔκ-φρες (Ar. V. 162 with Buttmann; codd. ἔκφερε); to this ipf. ἐξ-εφρίομεν (Ar. V. 125; for - εφρίεμεν?)

Origin: GR [a formation built with Greek elements]

Etymology: The above system of forms has evidently its centre in the futur- and aorist-forms; the rare present-forms are analogical formations. Thus εἰσ-έφρουν, - εφρούμην after the type ἐφίλουν, the hapax ἐσ-πιφράναι after ἱστάναι, πι(μ)πλάναι a.o. Through this already becomes unimportant the also semantically not unobjectionable equation of πιφράναι with the redupl. Skt. bí-bhar-ti `carry' (1. pl. bi-bhr̥-más: *πί-φρα-μεν; Brugmann, e.g. Brugmann-Thumb 331, with Curtius; after this Bq, WP. 2, 153 f., Pok. 128 f. a. o.). The aorist-forms ἐπεισ-έφρηκα, - φρῶ, - φρείς, ἔκ-φρες agree with ἐφ-ῆκα, -ῶ, - είς, - ες. So - φρήσω, - έ-φρηκα from - πρ(ο)-ἥσω, - πρ(ο)-ἧκα, to which the ipf. ἐξ-εφρίομεν (- εμεν?) after ( ἀφ)-ἵομεν (- εμεν); to this - έ-φρησα after ἔ-στησα etc. (Schwyzer 689 with Nauck a.o.)? The clearing away of the -o- and the from that following obscuration of the composition were favoured by the added prefixes. - So the basis will have been forms of προ-ίημι, aspiration giving φρ- (cf. φροῦρος).
