Origin: IE [Indo-European] [548] * k(e)lh₁- ` call'

Etymology: The disyll. verbal stem in καλέ-σαι (analogical καλέσσαι), as in ὀλέ-σαι, ἀρό-σαι etc. (Schwyzer 752); with κλη- in κέ-κλη-μαι, κι-κλή-σκω, κλη-τός compare βλη- in βέ-βλη-μαι, βλη-τός, from zero grade *kl̥h₁-. Beside monosyllabic κλη- (beside καλέ-σαι) Latin has clā- ( clā- mare, clā- rus; beside calā-re). The present καλέ-ω is no doubt an innovation, prob. to καλέσαι (Fraenkel Mélanges Boisacq 1, 367; diff. on καλέω, καλέσαι Specht KZ 59, 85ff.). - (Not cognate are κέλαδος ` noise'.) The α-vowel in καλέ-σαι will go back to a sonantic l̥ ; the same vowel is found in Italic, Lat. calāre ` declare', Umbr. kařetu (\< * kalē- tōd); further the not fully explained OHG, OS halōn `call, fetch' (= calāre), Hitt. kalleš- `call', Skt. uṣā- kal-a- `call' (s. ἠϊκανός). As in the semant. close IE. * kan- (s. καναχή) the a is clearly very old (is it connected with the onomatop. charcater of the verb?). - Forms in Pok. 548ff.; further W.-Hofmann and Ernout-Meillet s. calō.
