Grammatical information: v.Meaning: `to tread (on something), to densify by treading, to trod, to trample' (ep. poet. since Λ 534 a. Υ 499).Other forms: only presentst. except aor. κατ-έστειψας (S. OC 467; not quite certain), vbaladj. στιπτός (v. l. - ει-) `trodden solid, solid, hard'(S., Ar.), ἄ- στείβω `untrodden' (S.; also OGI 606?).Derivatives: στοιβή f. `stuffing, cushion, bulge etc.'; often as plantname `Poterium spinosum', of which the leaves were used to fill up (Hp., Ar., Arist., Epid. [IVa] etc.), with στοιβ-ίον `id.' (Dawkins JournofHellStud. 56, 10), - άς = στιβάς, - ηδόν `crammed in' (Arist.-comm.), - άζω, rarely w. δια- a.o., `to fill, to stuff' (Hdt., LXX a.o.), from which - αστός, - αστής, - ασις, - άσιμος, - ασία (hell. a. late). -- Besides zero grade nouns: A. στίβος m. `(trodden) road, path, footstep, trail' (ep. Ion. poet. since h. Merc.; cf. Porzig Satzinhalte 318), `fuller's workshop' (pap. IIIa). From this 1. στιβάς, - άδος f. `bed of straw, reed or leaves, mattress, bed, grave' (IA.) with - άδιον n. `id'. (hell. a. late), - αδεύω `to use like straw' (Dsc.). 2. στιβεύς m. `hound' (Opp.), `fuller' (pap.), = ὁδευτής (H.), - εύω `to track' (D.

Στίβων name of a dog (X. Cyn.). -- B. στιβαρός `solid, compact, massive, strong' (ep. poet. Il., also hell. a. late prose); like βριαρός a.o.; Chantraine Form. 227, also Benveniste Origines 19; cf. also Treu Von Homer zur Lyrik 49, - αρηδόν adv. `compact' (opposite σποράδην; late). -- C. With long vowel στί̄βη f. `ripe' (Od., Call.), - ήεις (Call.); on the meaning cf. πάγος, πάχνη to πήγνυμι.Etymology: From the Greek material the essential meaning appears to be the idea `tread (with the feet), make solid, fill up, press together' ( στοιβή, στιβάς, στι-βαρός), from where `tread' with `path, trace, track' ( στείβω, στίβος, στιβεύω). -- Exact agreements outside Greek for στείβω and related στίβος, στιβαρός are missing. Nearest comes Arm. stēp, gen. -oy `frequent, incessant, permanent' (adj. and adv.; on the meaning cf. πυκνός) with stip-em `press, urge', -aw, -ov `quick, diligent(ly)' from IE * stoibo- or * steibo-; so an exampel of the very rare IE b? Beside it with p the Lat. secondary formation stīpāre `press to gether, press, heap, fill up'; here also the Corinth. PN Στίπων (IG 4, 319)? -- To this can be connected in diff. languages on the one hand expressions for `fixed, stiff etc.': Germ., e.g. OE, MHG stīf `stiff, straight', Balt., e.g. Lith. stimpù, stìpti `become stiff or frozen', stiprùs `strong, steady'; on the other hand words for `bar, stalk, post etc.' in Lat. stīpes `pole, stem, bar', stipula `straw' and, with b (IE b as in στείβω), Lith., e.g. stíebas `mast(tree), pillar, stalk etc.', Slav., e.g. Russ. stébelь `stalk' etc. -- Further forms w. rich lit. in WP 2, 646ff., Pok. 1015f., W.-Hofmann s. stīpō, stips, stipula, Fraenkel and Vasmer s. vv.

3 νάρκη
Grammatical information: f.Meaning: `numbness, deadness, electric ray' (IA.; on the fish s. Strömberg 57);Other forms: second. νάρκᾰ Men.; Solmsen Wortforsch. 268Compounds: As 2. member in θηριο-νάρκη f. name of a plant that paralyzes a snake (Plin.).Derivatives: ναρκώδης `paralysed' (Hp.); ναρκάω, also with ἀπο-, δια-, ἐκ-, `be paralysed' (Θ 328) with ἀπονάρκη-σις (Plu.); ναρκόω `paralyse, become fixed' (Hp.) with νάρκω-σις, - τικός (medic.).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]Etymology: As zero grade verbal noun with barytone accent (cf. πάθη, βλάβη a.o., Chantraine Form. 22 f.) νάρκη might belong to a primary German. verb, OHG sner(a)han, MHG snerhen `swing, knot, draw together'; beside it the deverbative OWNo. snara `turn, swing, wind' (PGgm. * snarhōn) and the verbal noun OHG snar(a)ha, OWNo. snara f. `swing' (Fick 1, 575). Here perh. also with Lidén Armen. Stud. 65 f. Arm. nergew `tenuis, gracilis, λεπτός', if pop. *'girded, drawn together', with ew-suffix from a nominal * nerg, IE * snerk- (WP. 2, 700f., Pok.976f.). The meaning `swing etc.' is supposed for ναρκίον ἀσκόν II. (prop. `turned, twined'); Fick 1, 503, Persson Beitr. 2, 817, Bechtel Lex. 211 f.). The supposed connection is semantically far from convincing; als we would expect *νδρακ-. Given the fish-name, we should rather assume a Pre-Greek word * nark-.Page in Frisk: 2, 290Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > νάρκη

Beside these old nouns Indo-Ir. has a verb meaning `enter, go in, settle', Skt. viśáti, Av. vīsaiti, IE *u̯iḱ-éti. It can be taken as demon. of *u̯iḱ-'house'; so prop.

5 πύματος
Grammatical information: adj.Meaning: `utmost, last' (Il.).Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: Fixed superlative without agreement outside Greek; on the formation Schwyzer KZ 63, 60. Remote connection may exist with Skt. púnar `back, again, further', ardly however with OHG fon(a) ` von' (IE * pu-n-??; but OS fan(a) `id.' with orig. -o-). As IE *po (e.g. in Lat. po-situs) is considered as zero grade of * apo (= * h₂po from * h₂epo) `from, away', *pu would stand beside * apu, which is found only in Arc. Cypr. Lesb.

Grammatical information: adj.Meaning: `bent, crooked, shrivelled (of age, dryness, cold), stiff' (ep. poet. h.Ap.); ῥικνοφυεῖς τὰς στρεβλὰς καὶ πεπιεσμένας H.Compounds: ἐπί-ρρικνος `somewhat bent' (X., Poll.).Derivatives: ῥικν-ήεις `id.', enlarged form (Nic.); - ότης = καμπυλότης H.; - ώδης `shrivelled' (Hp., AP); ῥικνόομαι, rarely with κατα-, δια-, `to shrivel, to contract, to contort' (S., Arist., Opp.) with ῥίκνωσις f. `shrivelling, wrinkledness' (Hp.). -- Beside it ῥοικός `crooked, bowlegged' (Archil., Hp., Arist.). -- Further ῥικάζεται H. as explanation (beside στροβεῖται) of ῥιξικάζεται (s.v.).Origin: IE [Indo-European] [1158] *wroiḱ- `turn, envelop, crooked'Etymology: With ῥικ-νός: ῥοικ-ός cf. e.g. πικ-ρός: ποικ-ίλος. With ῥοικός agree Lith. ráišas (raĩšas) `limping, lame' (cf. for the meaning κυλλός `crooked, crippled'), Germ., MEng. wrāh `wrong, stubborn', NDutch wreeg `stiff', formally also Av. urvaēsa m. `whirlwind, tuningpoint of the racecourse', IE *u̯riḱo-s m. approx. `turning, curvature', adj. `turned, crooked'. Beside it from IE *u̯reiḱo-s a.o.

A denominative or deverbative deriv. is the ἅπ. λεγ ῥικάζεται H.; the form ῥιξικά-ζεται, thus glossed (and with στροβεῖται), must, if at all rightly transmitted, be an expressive enlargement; cf.

Grammatical information: m.Meaning: `erected pillar, post, mark, fixed target', also `suspicion' (after στοχάζομαι)? (very rare, partly in the transmission blurred attestations in A., E., X., Poll., Att. inscr.).Compounds: Compp. ἄ-στοχος `missing the target', εὔ-στοχος `aiming well, hitting well' (Att., hell. a. late) with ἀ-, εὑ-στοχ-ία, - έω.Derivatives: στοχ-άς, - άδος f. `raising for the poles of fixing-nets' (Poll.); also adj. of unclear meaning (E. Hel. 1480 [lyr.], prob. false v. l. for στολάδες); - ανδόν adv. `by conjecture' (Theognost.). Normal denom. στοχάζομαι, also w. κατα- a.o., `to target at sthing, to shoot, to seek to achieve, to guess, to conjecture, to explore' (Hp., Att., hell. a. late) with ( κατα-) στοχασμός, - ασις, - αστής, - αστικός; also στόχασμα n. `instrument for aiming' = `javelin' (E. Ba. 1205; cf. Chantraine Form. 145).Etymology: Without certain non-Greek agreement. As the original meaning seems to have been `erected pillar, post', we can compare some Balt.-Slav. and Germ. words. Thus Russ. stóg m. `heap, heap of hay', Bulg. stéžer `post to bind horses to, bar (Germ. Schoberstange)', Russ. dial. stož-á, -ará, -erá `supporting pillar of a haystack', čech. stožár `mast(tree)', Lith. stãgaras `thin long stalk of a plant', Latv. stę̄ga `long bar' etc. Because of Germ., e.g. OE staca, NEngl. stake, OWNo. staki m. `bar, javelin' (PGm. * stak-an-) for stóg etc. IE * steg- is also possible [no, the short vowel requires an aspirate: Winter-Kortlandt's law]. Beside the words mentioned Germ. presents also another group, which cannot be well be distinguished from it, which goes back on IE * stegh- (\> Slav. steg-), mostly in the nasalized form ste-n-gh-: Swed. stagg `stiff and standing grass, sholder, stickleback' (-gg express. gemin.), ODan. stag `point, germ'; OHG stanga, OWNo. stǫng f.
