ἧναι Hp.

ap. Gal.19.103 (glossed by κόψαι), Phot.:— sift, winnow, Pherecr.183, cf. Hdn.Gr.2.930; v. ἀνέω. (Possibly for ϝαν-yω, cf. vannus.)

Grammatical information: v.

Meaning: `winnow' (Pherekr.), but see the glosses.

Other forms: aor. ἧναι Further ἀ̄νέω (Ar. Fr. 694 (uncertain), Ath.), ἀφᾱνέω Ar. Eq. 394 (v.1.), ἄφηνα ἔκοψα, ἀφῆναι τὸ τὰς ἐπτισμένας κριθὰς χερσὶ τρῖψαι H.; further αἵνων· πτίσσων, ἥνας κόψας and γάναι (= Ϝᾶναι) περιπτίσαι (cod. - πτύσαι; s. Solmsen Unt. 280).

Origin: XX [etym. unknown] [82]

Etymology: PN Ἄνιος, Fick KZ 42, 146f.; Bechtel KZ 46, 374 compares the name of a phratry Ϝανίδαι (Argos); both quite uncertain. - One compared Lat. vannus `Futterschwinge'; and OHG wintōn `fan', Goth. dis-winÞjan `λικμᾶν'. The Germ. words seem to derive from the word for `wind' (cf. Lat. ventilare `fan', but αἵνω has no trace of the -t-. Derivation of the Greek word from * h₂weh₁- seems excluded by γάναι, which has no vowel before the F. ἀ̄νέω has been explained from *ἀ-Ϝαν-έω (Solmsen Unt. 272), which would imply a non-IE word (which is quite possible; or can we assume *h₂u̯n̥H- \> *αϜαν- ?). Note that the exact meaning of the word in unclear.

Dat.pl. κτεάτεσσι (Hom., Pi., E.), sg. κτέαρ (hell.) `(acquired) goods, possessions, property' with κτεατίζω `acquire' (Il.), κτεατισμός (Man.; cod. κτεαν-). - 2. κτέανα n. pl., sec. a. rare - ον sg. `id.'

(ο 19), `goods, landed property', also `domestic animals' (Chantraine Rev. de phil. 72, 5ff.), with κτημάτ-ιον (Alkiphr., pap.), - ίδιον (pap. VI<sup>p</sup>), - ικός `rich' (hell.), - ίτης `id.' (Lycurg.; Redard Les noms grecs en - της 28); as 2. member a. o. in πολυ-κτήμων `rich in possessions' (Il.) with - μοσύνη (Poll.). - 4. κτήνεα, - νη n. pl., rarely - νος sg. `domestic animals' (esp. Ion., hell.), prob. directly from κτάομαι with νος-suffix (Chantraine Formation 420; very complicated hypothesis in Egli Heteroklisie 48 f.); from it κτηνηδόν `after the kind of animals' (Hdt.), κτηνύδριον (pap.); often as 1. member, e.g. κτηνο-τρόφος `cattle-keeper' (hell.). - 5. κτῆσις `acquisition, possession' (Il.; Holt Les noms d'action en - σις 82 ff.) with κτήσιος `regarding the possessions', Ζεὑς Κτήσιος as protector of possessions (IA.; Nilsson Gr. Rel. 1, 403 ff.); dimin. κτησ(ε) ίδιον (Arr.). - 6. κτεάτειρα f. `who possesses (fem.)' (A. Ag. 356), archaising after κτεάτεσσι a. o. for - κτήτειρα, - τρια (in προ-κτήτρια `former possessor', pap.) to κτήτωρ m. `possessor' (D. S., pap., Act.

Except the rare and relatively late attested present κτάομαι all forms have κτη-(ἔγκτασις hyperdoric after ἔμπᾱσις; s. πάσασθαι). Also κτεάτεσσι, κτέαρ go back to a heteroklitic *κτῆ-Ϝαρ, - Ϝατος; besides κτέανα as rest of the old oblique n-stem *κτη-Ϝαν-α, which gave sg. κτέανον, s. Schwyzer 519 n. 6, Egli Heteroklisie 32.

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [626] *?? eh₁\/₂- `rule'? gain, acquire?

Etymology: The oldcomparison with Indo-Iran. present Skt. kṣáyati = Av. xšayeiti, -te `rule, order, have power' is semantically unproblemtic, but formally already less convincing, as κτάομαι makes the inpression of being an innovation and the well established non-present forms of Greek have no Indo-Iran. agreements. A further problem was Skt. kṣáy-ati; this form does not continue *ksǝi̯eti; the solution is * ksH-ei-, which was unknown until recently; this solution can also be used to explain Skt. kṣa-trám - Av. xša-θ rǝm `rule'. The equation of κτάομαι `acquire' and Skt. kṣáyati is therefore less evident. Cf. LIV 334, 562; EWAia 426 -- Pok. 626.
