18 Σείριος
Grammatical information: m.Meaning: `Sirius, dog star' (Hes.), also appositive or attributive Σείριος ἀστήρ (Hes. Op. 417), as adj. of stars (Ibyc. a. o.) and of the sun (Archil. a. o.), `glowing, burning, desiccating'; also as adjunct of the νᾶες (Tim. Pers. 192), prob. reinterpreted as `devastating, destroying' (cf. v. Wilamowitz ad loc.).Derivatives: σειριόεις `scorching, glowing' ( ἥλιος, ἀτμός, Opp., Nonn.); σειρι-άω `to glow, to scorch' ( ὀξέα σειριάει, of Σείριος, Arat. 331), also `to get a heat stroke, σειρίασις' (medic.); σειρ-αίνω `to scorch, to parch' (Oros ap. EM), - όω ( ἀπο-), also - έω (- εόω) `to desiccate, to drain, to filtrate' (medic., pap.; cf. Lagercrantz on PHolm. 23, 21) with - ωμα, - ωσις (late); - άζω `to strike', of lightning (Ael. Dion.). To this designations for `thin, transparent (summer)garment': σειρόν, σείριον, σείρινα, σειρήν (Harp., Phot., Hes.); cf. Solmsen Wortforsch. 128. Artificial backformation σείρ, σειρός ὁ ἥλιος καὶ Σείριος (Suid.).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Not certainly explained. If prop. `sparkling, flickering' and at all IE., Σείριος can with σείω (s. v.) belong to a verb for `be excited, sparkle, gleam' in Skt. tviṣ-, to which a.o. tvíṣ- `excitement, gleam', tveṣ-á- `tempestuous, sparkling'; to this also Av. ʮwisra- `lighting'. Basis then *tu̯eis-ro- or (if σει- would stand for σῑ-; Götze KZ 51, 151 f.) *tu̯is-ro-; s., beside Bq, WP. 1, 748 w. lit., Pok. 1099. Further details w. lit. in Scherer Gestirnnamen 111ff. -- Furnée 262 compares τίριος θέρους. Κρῆτες H.; if so, the word would be Pre-Greek.Page in Frisk: 2,688Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > Σείριος
