Etymology: In Skt. athematic vámi-ti; also in Lat. vomit, vomimus (ceside vomi-tus), which were reinterpreted as thematic, cf. reg-i-mus. Disyllabic root also in Lith. vémti (with new jot present vemiù ). The root also in North-Germanic, but only in metaph. meaning, e. g. OSw. vami m. `disgust'. - Schwyzer 222 n. 5 sees in ἐμέω an element of the living language, which would explain that the verb does not sow a Ϝ- in Homer (cf. ἱδρώς, also δίφρος).
