Merc.; Zumbach Neuerungen 57), pass. μαρανθῆναι (Il.), perf. midd. μεμάρα(σ)μαι and fut. μαρανῶ (late).Derivatives: μάρανσις `dying away, wither' (Arist.; Holt Les noms d'action en - σις 136 n. 1), μαρασμός `withering' with μαρασμώδης (Mediz.); μαραντικός `withering' (Phryn., Sch.).Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: The above forms, the nominal derivv. included, form a system built through analogy, which replaced an older set of primary formations. As example served denominatives with a comparable meaning like κηραίνω `damage, corrupt' or an oppositum like ἰαίνω, ἰᾶναι `refresh', for which we can suppose an old primary nasalpresent (cf. s. v.). For μαραίνω too a nasalpresent may have been the precursor; s. μάρναμαι with further connections; on this Schwyzer 693 and Fraenkel Denom. 23. Chantr. thinks that the root may be related to Lat. morior etc. -- A NGr. representative is μαραγγιάζω `flourish till the end, perish' (Hatzidakis Άθ. 43, 186f.).Page in Frisk: 2,174Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > μαραίνω
