6 ῥητί̄νη
ῥητί̄νηGrammatical information: f.Meaning: `resin, fir resin' (Hp., Arist., Thphr.), ῥητινό-κηρον n. `wax dissolved in resin' (medic.); on the neuter gender cf. βούτυρον.Derivatives: ῥητιν-ώδης `resinous', - ίτης οἶνος `resinous wine' (Dsc.; Redard 98), - ίζω `be resinous' (Dsc.), - όομαι `to be made resinous' (Hp., Dsc.).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: With the formations in -ῑνος, -ῑνη there are both inherited and Pre-Greek words (Chantraine Form. 204f., Schwyzer 491). No connection, prob. Pre-Greek. The comparison with Lat. rasis f. `a kind of raw, to dust pulverized pitch, which was mixed with wine' (Walde and W.-Hofmann s.v. as supposed LW [loanword] from *ῥάσις) is uncertain. -- Lat. rēsīna continues a dial. byform *ῥησίνα (Leumann Lat. Gr. 141). The variant in Latin shows that this is a Pre-Greek word; cf. Furnée 261.Page in Frisk: 2,654Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ῥητί̄νη
