3 πεῖραρ
πεῖραρ, - ατοςGrammatical information: n.Meaning: `end, boundary, outcome, goal, decision'; ep. also `rope, cable' (from `rope-end, cable-end'?; also `knot'?; s.bel.).Compounds: As 2. member in ἀ-πείρων (Il.), with transiion in the ο-stems ἄ-πειρος (Pi., Ion., trag., Pl., Arist.) `endless, unlimited', also ἀ-πε(ί)ρατος `id.' (Pi., Ph.); here also ἀπειρέσιος, ἀπείριτος with suffixtranfer (diff. s.v.)?; ἀπέρονα πέρας μη ἔχοντα H.; πολυ-πείρων `with many (wide) boundaries' (h. Cer. 296, Orph.).Derivatives: 1. πειραίνω (Hom.), περαίνω (Att.), aor. πειρῆναι, περᾶναι, also w. δια-, συν- a.o., `to bring to an end, to finish, to conclude' with ἀ-πέραντος (- εί-) `unlimited' (Pi., Att.), περαντικός `conclusive' (Ar., Arist.), συμπέρασ-μα n. `end, finishing, conclusion' (Arist.) with - ματικός (Arist.). 2. περατόομαι, - όω, also w. ἀπο-, συν-, `to end, to bring to an end, to limit' (Arist.) with ἀποπεράτ-ωσις (medic.). 3. ἀπο-περατίζω `to end' (sch.). 4. περατεύει ὁρίζει H. -- Also περάτη f. `extremity of the heavens' (ψ 243, Arat., Call.), after the superlatives (cf. Schwyzer 503 c); here περάτ-ηθεν `from the boundary, from beyond' (A. R.).Origin: IE [Indo-European] [811] *per-u̯-r̥\/n̥ `end'?Etymology: Basis *πέρϜαρ with old ρ \/ ν-flexion; from ν-stem ἀ-πείρων; through innovation πεῖρας, πέρας (cf. Schwyzer 514). -- A remarkable similarity shows Skt. pár-van- n. `knot, joint, section'. Schulze Q. 109f., 116ff. concludes from this a special word πεῖραρ with the meaning `knot' (μ 51 a.o., h. Ap. 129), with the ptc. πειρήναντε `knotting, kn. confirming' (χ 175, 192); very attractive, but with the in other places (e.g. Ν 358) hardly rejectable meaning `rope, line' (from `rope-, line-end'?) one finds even so no solution. After Krause Glotta 25, 148 stands beside πεῖραρ `end' a special πεῖραρ `line' to σπεῖρα, σπάρτον; to be rejected. For a uniform πεῖραρ (s. Bq w. older lit.) a.o. Niedermann Glotta 19, 7, Björck Mél. Bq 1, 143ff. -- In the sense of `end, frontier' πεῖραρ \< *πέρ-Ϝαρ belongs in any case to the great group πείρω, πέρᾱ etc. (prob. also πεῖρα); the orig. function of the element περ-, whether verbal or nominal, can no longer be decided. Also πεῖραρ = pár-van- `knot' can perh. be united (prop. `end, section, knot of a stalk'?; WP. 2, 32; doubts in Mayrhofer s. páruḥ).Page in Frisk: 2,490-491Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > πεῖραρ

4 κορώνη
Grammatical information: f.Meaning: `crow', also `shearwater', `Corvus corone, cornix, frugilegus, Puffinus yelkuan' (Od.);Compounds: rarely in compp., e. g. κορωνο-βόλος `shooting crows', τρι-κόρωνος `have three times the age of a crow' (AP). - Often metaph. of all kinds of curved or hook-formed objects (cf. below): `tip of a bow' (Il.), `grip of a door' (Od., Poll.), `tip of the plough-pole' (A. R.), `back of a ship' (Arat.), `pathological tumour of the elbow etc.' (Hp.), `kind of crown' (Sophr. 163, H.).Derivatives: κορωνιδεύς m. `young crow' (Cratin. 179; Boßhardt Die Nom. auf - ευς 46); κορώνεως f. `tree with raven-black figs' (Ar. Pax 628; cf. on ἐρινεώς s. ἐρινεός). - κορωνίς f. `curbed, with tail', of ships (Hom.), of cattle (Theoc.), as subst. `crown' (Stesich.), `curved line, ornament' at the end of a book etc., as orthographic sign, metaph. `end' (hell.); also m. κορωνός `curbed etc.' (Archil., Hp., EM), also PN Κόρωνος (Β 746; Sommer Nominalkomp. 122), n. κορωνόν `knob of bone(s)', τὰ κόρωνα `elbow' (medic.); κορώνιος μηνοειδῆ ἔχων κέρατα βοῦς H., also monthsname (Knossos), κορώνιον n. `Krähenkraut(=?)' (Ps.-Dsc.; Strömberg Pflanzennamen 42); κορωνίης m. `who proudly bows his neck' ( ἵππος; Semon.) with κορωνιάω `id., be proud' (hell.), also `curb oneself' ( κορωνιόωντα πέτηλα Hes. Sc. 289; metr. conditioned). - Denomin. verb κορωνίζω `end, finish' (of κορωνίς; Pontos); also of κορώνη as basis of κορωνισταί pl. "crow-singer", κορωνίσματα pl. "crow-songs", i. e. `begging singer', `-songs' (Ath.). - See on κορώνη Thompson Birds s. v.Origin: IE [Indo-European] [567] *ker-\/kor-v\/n- `crow'Etymology: The Italic words for `crow', Lat. corn-īx, Umbr. curn-aco `cornicem', make also for κορών-η an old n-stem * koron-, * korn- probable (also in κόραξ and κόραφος? (diff. Brugmann Grundr.2 2: 1, 280; s. also Schwyzer 491); an u-stem alternating with this n-stem is seen in Lat. corvus, MIr. crū `raven'. The words are all based on an onomatop. (diff. Specht Ursprung 118: orig. colour word). - Generally κορώνη is as name for curbed abjects beside κορωνίς, κορωνός separated from κορώνη `crow' and connected with κυρτός (s. v.). Against a separation in two diff. words speaks the remarkable formation of the Greek word. The metaphorical use of κορώνη `crow' has nothing remarkable ( κόραξ, Lat. corvus, Fr. corbeau, NEngl. crow, Swed. kråka etc.). Both the beak and the feet of the bird may have caused the metaphors. - From here Lat. corōna, corōnis with westeuropean derivv. - Cf. on κόραξ.Page in Frisk: 1,927-928Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > κορώνη
