    δή
    Grammatical information: interj.
    Meaning: `even, indeed, right', emphasizing particle (Il.), like δέ mostly in the second position of the sentence; also in more or less fest connections like ἤ-δη, ἐπει-δή, δῆ-θεν, δῆτα etc.; see Schwyzer-Debrunner 562f.
    Origin: IE [Indo-European]X [probably] [181] *de demonstr. pronoun
    Etymology: Perhaps a case form (instrumental?) of a demonstrative; it would be identical with Lat. dē, OIr. dī `away from'. See W.-Hofmann s. dē. - From δή through weakening δέ. S. also δαί. - Pisani ( Glotta 44, 1967, 134) connects Myc. eke-qe as -qʷē = δη.

    Meaning: `noise, roar, cracking produced by clashing, breaking etc.' (Il.).
    Derivatives: Beside it 1. παταγ-έω, also m. ἀντι-, ὑπο- a.o., `to make noise, to plash, to roar' (Alc. [ πατάγεσκε]), -ή f. (D. P., Longos), - ημα n. (Men.) = πάταγος. 2. πατάσσω, aor. πατάξαι, also m. ἐκ-, συν- a.o., `to knock, to beat, to hurt' (Il.; in Att. mostly aor. a. fut. act. to pres. τύπτω; Bloch Suppl. Verba 83ff.). 3. πατάξ interj. (Ar. Av. 1258; cf. on εὑράξ). 4. καπατᾳ̃ κατακόψεις. Πάφιοι H.
    Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]
    Etymology: With πάταγ-ος: - έω several words are to be compared: κτύπ-ος: - έω, ἄραβ-ος: - έω, κέλαδ-ος: - έω, ῥοῖβδ-ος: - έω etc.; s. vv. w. lit. It cannot always be distinguished, whether the subst. or the verb is primary or the other way round. The γ-suffix as in the close λαλαγή, σμαραγέω ( Σμάραγος), οἰμωγή a.o. With πατάσσω agrees synonymous ἀράσσω; similar σπαράσσω, τινάσσω etc. (Schwyzer 733). Details on the formation in Porzig Satzinhalte 25. -- The onomatop. character of the expressive words is clear; connections outside Greek (Lat. quatiō a.o.; s. Bq and W.-Hofmann s.v.) do not convince. - Furnée 279 compares σπαταγγίζειν ταράσσειν H.; the word then may be Pre-Greek.
