Hdt. 8, 112), aor. κτήσασθαι (Il.), pass. κτηθῆναι (Th., E.), fut. κτήσομαι (posthom.), perf. ἔκτημαι, κέκτημαι (Hes., Att.),Derivatives: Also from the prefixcompp. (here not specif. noted): 1. 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.'

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. Ap.) with κτητορικός (pap.); details in Fraenkel Nom. ag. 2, 29f., 1, 183 n. 1, Schwyzer 474 n. 3. - 7. Φιλο-κτή-της PN (Il.), compound from φίλος and κτάομαι with τη-suffix; Att. Φιλοσκήτης (Kretschmer Glotta 4, 351). -8. Verbal adjectives: κτητός `to acquire, acquired' (I 408; Ammann Μνήμης χάριν 1,14); usu. ἐπίκτη-τος `also acquired, newly acquired' (IA.); κτητικός `of what was acquired' (Att.), cf. Chantraine Ét. sur le vocab. grec 137. - 9. Unclear is ἀκτῆνες πένητες, ἠργηκότες (EM55, 11); after Solmsen Wortforsch. 143 prob. from *ἀ-κτη-ῆνες. 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.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.

5 ἄγρα
Grammatical information: f.Meaning: `hunting, prey' (Od.)Compounds: Instruments: πυράγρα `fire-tongs' (Il.), κρεάγρα `meat-tongs' (Ar.); ὀδοντάγρα `tooth-tongs'; diseases: ποδάγρα `podagra'; in - άγρετος: αὑτάγρετος `self-chosen' (Od.). The interpretation of these words is debated. βοάγρια, ἀνδράγριον `what was taken from a cow (= shield)', from a man, spoils of a slain enemy'.Derivatives: ἀγρεύς `hunter' (Pi.); on the meaning of ἀγρέτης see Redard Les noms grecs en -της 236 A. 58; - ἀγρώσσω `catch' (Od.), cf. Schwyzer 733 ζ. ἀγρέω `take, seize' (Il.; only ipv. ἄγρει, - τε; but see Wackernagel Unt. 166f.), Aeol. ipv. κατάγρεντον.Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: The relation between ἄγρα and ἀγρέω is unclear. Against ἀγρέω as denominative from ἄγρα Schwyzer 727 A.1. McKenzie, Cl. Quarterly 15, 46f and 125, wants to separate the two words. DELG is inclined to accept this (I see no reason why then ἄγρα would have to be connected with ἄγω). It is said that ἀγρέω and αἱρέω influenced each other, but where? - Connection with the Indo-Iranian words is now rejected (see Frisk, DELG). From Celtic are compared W. aer `battle' (\< *agrā), Ir. ár n. `defeat' (\< * agrom), Gaul. peoples name Veragri. - Fur. (s. index) thinks ἀγρέω is a substr. word, because of the prenasalized forms (Thess. αγγρε-), because of the form with αι for α ( Έξαίγρετος on coins from Asia Minor, Vendryes, Mél. Boisacq 2, 331-334; this form I find hardly reliable), because of the variant ἐγρέω, and because of the metathesized form αργειτε. Non-IE origin is for both words quite possible.See also: ζωγρέωPage in Frisk: 1,15-16Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ἄγρα

(LXX).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Generally taken as negative verbal adjective of σφάλλεσθαι, as the material that protects walls from σφάλλεσθαι. Diels KZ 47, 207ff., who finds no Semitic etymologies. For the `causative' meaning of the verbal adjective one compares ἀμέθυστος; still, this point makes the etymology weak. Chantr. notes `qui empêche de glisser, de tomber, le produit étant employé comme mortier (ce qui n'est pas à l'origine un procédé grec).' The etymology is improbable; rather a substr. word; Diels noted that sources occur everywhere, e.g. on Zakynthos and near Dyrrhachium..Page in Frisk: 1,174Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ἄσφαλτος

A priori for all these forms a local, i.e. Pre-Gr. form is to be expected. To this will point the variation α\/ο. This holds also for βαρδακος if this must be read in H. for βαρακος βάραχος (Fur. 184 A. 2; s. Latte). The form may in origin have been onomat.? (cf. Grošelj, Živa Ant. 6 (1956) 235) βρατ-αχ-, cf. βρεκεκεξ. Or even * brt-ak-, from which the forms with - υ- might come ( βύρθακος, βρύτιχος). The desperate forms βριαγχόνη, βρόγχος (this form to be read for βρούχετος?) contain a (misread) prenasalized *( βρατ)αγχος, which would also point to Pre-Greek.

Schwyzer RhM 81, 203); βυσσοδομεύω `build in the deep \> brood over (in the deep of one's soul), ponder deeply' (Od.), m.c. for βυσσοδομέω (Eust., Suid.) like οἰκοδομέω etc., s. K. Meister, Hom.

Ptc. βυθόωσα ( ῥίζα) `going in the deep' (Nic. Th. 505). - Further βυσσός m. `depth of the sea' (Il.), βυσσόθεν (S.). -- Also βύσσα (Opp.; after βῆσσα? so prob. secondary); further βύσσαλοι βόθροι, βυσσαλεύοντι τῳ̃ βυθῳ̃ ἐφικνουμένῳ H.; also βυθμός ἄντρον, πυθμήν, καὶ βυθμήν (perh. corrupt).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: A basis *βυθι̯ός or *βυθσός for βυσσός does not inspire confidence. Connecting βαθύς (and βῆσσα) one posited a labio-velar, but then the connection of βαθύς with βενθος must be abandoned, for which there is no reason. Also assuming a labio-velar would mean that the β- could not be regular (one expects γυ-): it would have to be introduced from βῆσσα, which a guess. Connecting γυθίσσων διορύσσων H. would give the same problem; the form can better be left aside. - The old attempts to connect βαθύς and βῆσσα (with α against υ) are most improbable and should now be abandoned. βυθός - βυσσός shows a typical variation of Pre-Greek words; see Fur.248-263, e.g. ἄνηθον\/ ἄνησον. The conclusion is confirmed by βυσσαλ- with a typical Pre-Greek suffix, cf. κόρυδος beside κορύδαλος\/ κορυδαλλός (Fur. 254) and perhaps ἄμυσσος κῆτος, and also ἀβυδόν βαθύ.Page in Frisk: 1,275-276Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > βυθός
