  • 13 μετέωρος

    Grammatical information: adj.
    Meaning: `raised on high, in suspense, above the earth, on high sea, superficial', metaph. `hesitating, uncertain, pending, excited' (Il.).
    Other forms: ep. μετήορος, Aeol. a. Dor. πεδάορος (Alc., A.)
    Compounds: Often as 1. member, e.g. μετεωρο-λόγος `who speaks about τὰ μετέωρα, astronomer', with - έω, - ία (IA.; Capelle Phil. 71, 414ff.).
    Derivatives: μετεωρ-ότης f. `sublimity' (Corn.), - ία `absent-mindedness' (Suet., M. Ant.), - οσύνη `id.' (Man.); - ίδιον meaning uncertain (pap. letters). Denomin. μετεωρίζω `raise high, encourage (with false hopes) etc.', midd.-pass. also `become proud, haughty' (IA.) with μετεωρ-ισμός (Hp., Arist.), - ισμα (hell.), - ισις (Plu., D.C.) `exaltation, excitedness etc.'; - ιστής H. as explanation of πεδαοριστής (beside ἵππος φρυ\<α\> γ-ματίας), - ιστικός `exciting' (Vett. Val.). -- Also μετεωρέω = μετεωρίζομαι (Ph.).
    Origin: GR [a formation built with Greek elements]
    Etymology: Derivation from *μετ-αείρω, μετ-αίρω (Aeol. πεδαίρω) `raise high' like συνάορ-ος `coupled together' from συν-αείρω ( ἔξοχ-ος: ἐξ-έχω etc.; Schwyzer 430 a. 460). Also hypostasis of μετ' ἀέρος `in the air' (with anal. - ο-) is possible, cf. Kretschmer Glotta 31, 449; connection with ἀήρ is indeed obvious, cf. Ar. Nu. 264 Άήρ, ὅς ἔχεις την γῆν μετέωρον. Cf. μετάρσιος and Wackernagel Syntax 2, 244, Björck Alpha impurum 112 f.
