1 δύο
Grammatical information: numer.Meaning: `two'Other forms: ep. eleg. also δύω, Lac. etc. also δύ(Ϝ)ε (after κύν-ε etc.), oblique forms δυοῖν (Att. δυεῖν since IV-IIIa), δυῶν, δυοῖσ(ι), δυσί; also indeclinable ( Il.); see Schwyzer 588f.Compounds: As first member (beside usual δι-, s. δίς) e. g. in δυο-ποιός `making two' (Arist.), and in univerbations like δυο-καί-δεκα (Il. a. o.);Origin: IE [Indo-European] [228] *duu̯o, *duu̯-eh₃(?) `two'Etymology: The final short of δύο also in Arm. erko-tasan `twelve' and in Skt. (Ved.) deriv. dva-ká- `in pairs' (Lat. duo is due to the Iambenkürzung). *duu̯o is also found in Goth. twa and wit `we two' and in OIr. da. (Cowgill, MSS 46 (1985) 13-28). δύο from δύω or *δύοι (= Skt. duvé, OCS dъvě f. n.) before vowel does not convince. Therefore δύο beside the dual δύω (= Skt. duvā́, OCS dъva m.) must be an old indeclinable. Beside IE *duu̯ō̆ and *duu̯ōu (in Skt. duváu) there was monosyllabic *du̯ō(u) in δ(Ϝ)ώ-δεκα, Arm. erku, Skt. dvā́(u), Hitt. dā- in dā-yuga- `two years old', dān `a second time'. See Wackernagel-Debrunner Aind. Gramm. 3, 341ff. and Cowgill l.c. who assumes *dúu̯o beside *duu̯ṓ (which was *duu̯eh₃(u), rather than *duu̯oh₁ with o-stem inflection).Page in Frisk: 1,424-425Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > δύο
