1 ἀφήτωρ
ἀφήτωρ, - οροςGrammatical information: m.Meaning: epithet of Apollo (I 404). ἀφητορεία μαντεία H. σαφητωρ· μάντις ἀληθής, μηνὺτης, ἐρμηνεὺς H.Origin: GR [a formation built with Greek elements]Etymology: Acc. to Eustathios and the scholl. (also) explained as `prophet' (Eust. ὁμοφήτωρ), i.e. from α copulative and φημί, which is no doubt wrong. Rather from ἀφίημι, s. Fraenkel, Nom. ag. 1, 14f., 42, i.e. `who sends off'. This could well mean `archer' ( ἀφὶημι `discharge'). Doubted by Kraus, WienAkAnz. 87, 516ff., who suggests `who sends off' (people on their journey).Page in Frisk: 1,195Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ἀφήτωρ

2 ἕδνα
Grammatical information: n. pl.Meaning: `bride-gift' (Il.; on the meaning Köstler WienAkAnz. 81 [1944] 6ff., Theiler Mus. Helv. 7, 114 w. lit.).Compounds: ἀνά-εδνος `withou ἕ.' (Il.; on the prefix Schwyzer 432, Chantr. Gramm. hom. 1, 182).Derivatives: Also ἄεδνον ἄφερνον η πολύφερνον H.; ἑδνο-φορέω `bring bride-gifts' (Eust.). - Old denomin. ἑδνόομαι ( ἐεδν-), - όω `give ἕ. to one's daughter' (β 53) with ἐεδνωτής `brides father' (Ν 382; cf. Fraenkel Nom. ag. 1, 25; 2, 206). - Several glosses in Hesych: ἕδνιος χιτών ὅν πρῶτον ἡ νύμφη τῳ̃ νυμφίῳ δίδωσιν; ἑδνάς ἡ ἀπὸ τῶν ἕδνων ἐδητύς, ἑδνεύειν ἐνεχυράζειν.Origin: IE [Indo-European] [1115] *h₁u̯ed- `bride-price'.Etymology: With ἕδνα, ἕδνον from IE *u̯ed-no- (on the aspir. Schwyzer 227) compare Slavic and a Westgermanic word for `bride-price': e. g. ORuss. věno, from *u̯ed-no- acc. to Winter-Kortlandt; not better to Lat. vēnum [ dare]; see. Vasmer Russ. et. Wb. s. véno [1, 182f.]; OE. weotuma, OHG widomo m., from PGerm. * wet-man-, IE *u̯ed-mon-; (the Gr.-Slav. no-suffix may be from - mno-, themat. of - mon-). - Uncertain Alb. vigjë `present, in the form of edibles, for a wedding etc.' (\< *u̯ed-l- ?). - This old word for `bride-price' is generally derived from a verb `(take home), marry (of the man)', which is seen in Lith. vedù, OCS vedo (with -dh because of the short vowel), OIr. fedid. - Skt. vadhū́- `bride, young woman, daughter-in-law', which one would not like to separate from the words discussed, is because of the dh incompatible with ἕδνα or Germ. weotuma. - It is clear that ἕδν- is the younger, ἔεδν- the older form. The `prothesis' (from * h₁-) must be old, as it cannot be secondary and is unnecessary.Page in Frisk: 1,442-443Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ἕδνα

(Phld., medic.) with - ίασις, also - ιασμός (EM); - όω `with ivory inlays' with - ωτός (nscr.).Origin: LW [a loanword which is (probably) not of Pre-Greek origin] Egypt.Etymology: Like Lat. ebur ἐλέφας is a foreigm word. The final (except the ντ-suffix) recalls like Lat. eb-ur an Egypt. āb(u), Copt. εβ(ο)υ `elephant, ivory', Skt. íbha- `elephant'; the begin recurs in Hamit. eḷu `elephant' (from where through Egypt. [p- Art.] Pers. pīl, Arab. fīl); details remain unclear. - From ἐλέφας Lat. elephās, elephantus, from there the Germanic and Romance forms. W.-Hofmann s. ebur, Lokotsch Et. Wb. d. europ.

4 νέκταρ
νέκταρ, - αροςGrammatical information: n.Meaning: `nectar, drink of the gods' (Il.).Compounds: As 1. member a.o. in νεκταρο-σταγής `dripping nectar' (com.).Derivatives: νεκτάρ-εος `of nectar, smelling as nectar' (Il.), - ώδης `nectar-like' (Gp.); νεκτάριον n. plantname = ἑλένιον (Dsc.), also name of a medicine and several eye-salves (Gal.), with νεκταρίτης ( οἶνος) `wine spiced with νεκτάριον' (Dsc., Plin., Redard 98).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin](X)Etymology: As opposed to the comparable ἀμβροσία (s. βροτός) without certain etymology. Often considered as compoound of νεκ- in νέκ-ες (cf. νέκ-υς, νεκ-ρός) and a verb `get over, overcome', which is found a.o. in Skt. tárati and as zero grade final member in ap-túr `passing the waters', viśva-túr `overcoming everything' etc. (cf. τέρμα). Thus (after Grimm a.o.) esp. Thieme Studien 5ff. with extensive argumentation and criticism of other views: νέκταρ prop. as expression of the IE poetic language "das über die [Todes -]Vernichtung Hinwegrettende". Doubts in Leumann Gnomon 25, 190 f.; agreeing Schmitt KZ 77, 88 who refers to Skt. mr̥tyúmáti tr̥̄ `overcome death' (odanéna `through rice-milk' AV 4, 35). -- To be rejected Güntert Kalypso 161 ff. (agreeing Heubeck Würzb. Jb. 4, 218 A.): νέ-κταρ prop. "Nichttotsein" (to κτέρες νεκροί H.; but s. on κτέρας), not better Grošelj Razprave II 46 f.: to Lith. nė̃koti `stir, knead'. New hypothesis by v. Windekens Rev.. belge de phil. 21, 146 ff.: to Toch. A ñkät, B ñakte `god'; thus Kretschmer WienAkAnz. 84, 13ff., but as Anatolian LW [loanword]. - Fur. 320 compares νικὰριον, an eye-salve. If this is correct, the word is clearly Pre-Greek; he also points to the Pre-Greek words in - αρ (134 n. 75). He holds that the existing interpretations are too Indo-Iranian in character, not so much Greek.Page in Frisk: 2,Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > νέκταρ
