  • 101 εἴλιγγος

    Grammatical information: m., often plur.
    Meaning: `whirling, whirl-pool' (Hp., Pl.),
    Other forms: εἶλιγξ ( ἶλ-), - γγος m. (D. S. u. a.). ἴλ-
    Derivatives: Denomin. verb εἰλιγγ-ιάω ( ἰλ-) `have whirlings' (Ar.); with εἰλιγγιώδης `have vertigo's' (gloss.).
    Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
    Etymology: Form in - ιγγ(ο)- (Schwyzer 498, Chantr. Form. 398ff.), either direct from εἰλέω `turn, wind' or through an unknown noun. Initial εἰ- from the present (cf. 2. εἰλέω); a prothet. ἐ- (Solmsen Unt. 243f. as alternative) is superfluous. On ἰλ- for εἰλ- cf. ἴλη. - See 2. εἰλέω. Uncertain is Toch. B wai walau `vertigo' (two words?), s. v. Windekens Lexique étymologique 150, Sieg OLZ 46, 137. - The word could well be Pre-Greek and have nothing to do with εἰλέω.

  • 102 ἑλλέβορος

    Grammatical information: m.
    Meaning: hellebore, Helleborus, Veratrum album' (Hp., Ar.; on the meaning Dawkins JournHellStud. 56, 3f.).
    Other forms: Ion. ἐλ-
    Compounds: As 1. member in ἑλλεβοροποσία `drinking ἑ.' (Hp.) ἑλλεβορο-σήματα plant name =- λειμώνιον (Ps.-Dsc. 4, 16); bahuvrihi: `plant, that shows Helleborus-symptoms', Strömberg Wortstudien 51.
    Derivatives: ἑλλεβορίνη `Herniaria glabra' (Thphr., Dsc.), ἑλλεβορίτης `κενταύρειον τὸ μικρόν' (Ps.-Dsc.), also name of a wine (Dsc., Plin.), vgl. Redard Les noms grecs en - της 71 and 96; denomin. verb ἑλλεβορίζω `treat with h., bring to sense' (Hp., D.) with ἑλλεβορισμός (Hp.).
    Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
    Etymology: Taken as "eaten by deer" to ἐλλός ( ἑλλός) and βιβρώσκω (s. βορά), s. Strömberg Wortstudien 48ff. (full disc.). The ε remains problematic. - Suz. Amigues. in RPh 72, 1998, 125, who stresses that the plant is deadly. Suggestion to identify the first element with ἐσθλός; Girard, Connaissance...l'hellébore 1988 assumes original ἑλλο-, which is hardly correct. The etymology seems very doubtful to me; the word could well be non-IE, i.e. Pre-Greek. The double - λλ- will represent the phoneme -ly-, which at the same time explains the two first ε's: \/a\/ was pronounced [ä] in contact with the palatalized l, and [ä] is reproduced by ε; after the β it may have become ο; sowe have \/alyabar-\/.

    Origin: IE [Indo-European] [248] * dʰembʰ- `dig'
    Etymology: With the generalized zero grade θαπ-, ταφ- \< *θαφ- agrees Arm. damb-an `tomb', if one starts from IE dhm̥bh- (but the words are not old, s. Clackson, Relationship Arm. Greek, 1994, 120f.); the full grade * dʰembʰ- would have been eliminated in both languages. ( τάφ-ρ-ος: damb-an does not allow to posit an r-n-stem. - Lidén Armen.

  • 104 -κναίω

    Grammatical information: v.
    Meaning: `scrape, scratch', only with prefix, δια-, ἀπο-, ἐκ-, κατα-κναίω (Hp., Trag. in lyr., Att.);
    Other forms: also as simplex, Att. inf. κνῆ-ν, κνῆ-σθαι, 1. a. 3. sg. pres. κνῶ, κνῃ̃, ipf. ἐπὶ... κνῆ (Λ 639), also κνᾶ-ν (Hdt.), κνᾶ-σθαι, κνᾳ̃ (hell.); further κνήθω, also with κατα-, ἐν-, ἐπι- a. o. (Arist., hell.). Non-pres. forms: 1. - κναῖσαι, - κναισθῆναι, - κναίσω, - κεκναισμένος (Ar., E. in lyr., Pl.,Theoc.); more usual (as simpl. a. comp.) 2. κνῆσαι, Dor. opt. midd. (Theoc.) κνάσαιο, κνησθῆναι, κνήσω, κέκνησμαι (IA.).
    Derivatives: Action nouns: 1. κνῆσις `scratching, tickling' (Pl.) with κνησιάω `desire to tickle' (Ar., Pl.), also κνηστιάω `id.' (Gal., Jul.; after the verbs in - τιάω) and κνηθιάω `id.' (Hdn., EM; after κνήθω, cf. Schwyzer 732). 2. κνῆσμα (rarely κνῆμα) `id.' (Hp., X.); 3. κνησμονή `id.' (medic.; πῆμα: πημονή etc.); 4. κνησμός `id.' (Hp., Arist.) with κνησμώδης `affected with itching' (Hp., Arist., Str.). 5. κνηθμός `itching' (Nic.). - Agent nouns and instruments: 6. κνῆστις f. (from *κνήστης m.) `knife for scratching, cheese-grater' (Λ 640, Nic., Opp.), also `spine' (κ 161; cf. ἄκνηστις s.v.); diff. on κνῆστις z. B. Fraenkel Glotta 4, 41ff., Benveniste Noms d'agent 77; 7. κνηστήρ `scratching knife' (Nic.). 8. κνηστίς -ίδος f. `hollow hair-pin' (Plu.). 9. κνῆστρον `stinging plant, Daphne oleoides, θυμελαία' (Hp., Dsc.); κνηστρίον `scraper', ( Edict. Diocl.). - Adj. 10. κνηστικός `scratching, itching' (Sch.).
    Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]
    Etymology: Of the presents κναίειν, κνῆν, κνήθειν the last can be an innovation to κνῆ-σαι etc. after πλῆ-σαι: πλή-θ-ω, λῆ-σαι: λήθ-ω a. o. The pair κνῆν: κναίειν agrees with the semantically close ψῆν: ψαίειν. - One compares several words with initial IE. * k(e)n- but with different forms, which is not surprising in view of the emotional value of expressions for `scratch, grate'. With κνῆ-ν (prob. orig. athematic; Schwyzer 675f., Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 297 a. 307) from IE. * knē- agree best in Baltic and Germanic Lith. kn(i)ó-tis `peek (oneself) off, get loose', OHG nuoen `make smooth by scratching, fit exactly' (with OHG hnuo `joint, groove' etc.) from IE. * knō-? (cf. κνώ-δ-αλον?), perh. * knā- as in Alb. krromë `scab, mange' form IE. *knā-mn̥ (Gr. κνῆμα is independent). Lat. cnāsonas however, acc. pl. `scratching nails' (Paul. Fest. 52) from hell. *κνά̄σων `scratcher' ( κνᾶσαι ὀλέσαι, λυπῆσαι H.); cf. Leumann Sprache 1, 207. - The - αι- in κναίω however has no direct counterpart (Lith. knaisýti is secondary to knìsti `scratch', s. κνίζω). Connecting κνῆ-ν and κναί-ειν to an old paradigma (* knē[i]-mi: knǝi-mé (Schwyzer 676; cf. Specht Ursprung 325; the last form is impossible since the laryngeal theory) is quite hypothetical. - Cf. κνίζω, κνύω, κνάπτω; κνώδαλον, κνήφη, κνέωρος and κόνις; s. Pok. 559ff., Fraenkel Lit. et. Wb. s. knablỹs. - Strangely enough it has not been proposed that the words could well be Pre-Greek; the meaning makes this quite possible; the connections in Pok. 599 are far from convincing. Cf. also κναδάλλεται κνήθεται H., with which compare γνάφαλλον, γνόφαλον, which are clearly Pre-Greek (s.s.v. κνάπτω); is κναδ- a variant of κνηθ-? For κναδ- no PIE prefrom can be reconstructed (cf. on γνάθος). Note that Kuiper assumed that words with kn- in Germanic were prob. substrate, NOWELE 25 (1995) 68 a.70. The formation of κνήσων (and the Latin loan cnāsōn- cited above) seems non-IE; cf. DELG s.v. Also the formation of a verb in - αίω is unknown.
    See also: - S. noch κνέωρος, κνήφη.

    Derivatives: κοκκύζω of the call of the cuckoo and of the cock (Hes.; cf. Fraenkel Glotta 4, 34) with κοκκυσμός `shrill cry' (Nicom. Math.), κοκκυστής `cry-er' (Timo); κόκκυξ, -ῡγος m. `cuckoo' (Hes., - υγος nom. Alc.), also metaph., a. o. as name of a fish (Hp., Arist.), a fig (Nic.); s. Strömberg Fischnamen 116, resp.

    Etymology: On κοκκύμηλον s. v. Prob. dissim. from kuku (Schwyzer 258 a. 423). Onomatopoetic like Skt. kokilá- `cucko', kukkuṭá- `cock', Lat. cucūlus, NHG Kuckuck etc.; Pok. 627, W.-Hofmann s. cucūlus. On κόκκυξ Thompson Birds s. v. The word could well be Pre-Greek.

    Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]
    Etymology: Formation like γυμνάσιον, - σία to γυμνάζομαι etc. (Schwyzer 469f.); also λογγῶνες m. pl. `id.', after EM 569, 42 Syracusan, shortened form after the place-names in -( ε)ών. - Cannot be separated from the synonymous λαγγάζω (s. v.); the ο-vowel remains unexplained.

  • 108 μύδος

    Grammatical information: adj.
    Meaning: ἄφωνος H. (Lattes comment is not clear to me.)
    Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]
    Etymology: Cf. μυκός. I see no connection between the two. The first connection seems with μυνδός, which points to a Pre-Greek word (with prenasalisation). Connection with Arm. mownǰ `dumb' seems obvious, but the conclusion is not clear (Clackson, Relationship 45: *mundi̯o- `somewhat dubious'; it could well be a substratum word). Pok. 751 does not help.

    Derivatives: 1. Diminut.: μυθ-άριον (Str.), - ίδιον (Luc.), - ύδριον (Tz.). --2. Adject.: μυθ-ικός `belonging to the μ.' (Pl., Arist.), - ώδης `rich in myths' (Att.). -- 3. Verbs: a) μυθέο-μαι `tell' (Il.) with μυθη-τής `story-teller' (Antig.), μυθητῆρες στασιασταί H., also μυθιῆται (like οἰκιῆ-ται, πολι-ῆται) = στασιασταί (Anacr. 16; cf. Coll. Alex. 248f.); also in sing. with unclear meaning (Phoen. 1, 7); b) μυθεύω `id.' (E., Arist.) with μύθευμα `tale' (Arist. D. H.); c) μυθίζω `id.' (Dor. in Ar. Lys., Theocr., AP). -- On itself stands μύθα φωνή. Κύπριοι H.
    Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]
    Etymology: Like so many expressions for `word, speech' perh. orig. an expressive creation of the folk- and every day-language; "die Anknüpfung an das lautnachahmende μῦ (Fick, Curtius, WP. 2, 310; s. μύζω) bietet sich dann von selbst." Frisk; a reasoning that is not at all convincing. A θ-suffix is not remarkable (cf. Schwyzer 510f., Chantraine Form. 366ff.), though there is no semantical agreement. -- Against connection with Goth. maudjan `remember', Lith. maudžiù, maũsti `sensuously desire s.thing' a. o. (Bq with Wood, Fick, Pedersen) s. WP. 2, 256; quite diff. on Lith. maũsti Fraenkel s.v. Cf. also W.-Hofmann s. muttiō. - So there is no comparandum; the word could well be Pre-Greek.

    Compounds: Compp., e.g. νοσο-ποιέω `cause disease' (Hp.), ἐπί-νοσος `a prey of disease, unhealthy' (Hp., Arist.; Strömberg Prefix Studies 85).
    Derivatives: A. Adj.: 1. νοσερός `ill, unhealthy' (Hp., E.. Arist.); 2. νοσηρός `id.' (Hp., X.; ὑγιηρός Pi., Ion.) with νοσήριον (H. s. κηρέσιον; for νοσητήριον or νοσηρόν?); 3. νοσηλός `ill, sickly' (Hp.; rather from νοσέω, cf. Chantraine Form. 241) with νοσήλια n. pl. `sick-diet' (Opp.), νοσηλεύω, - ομαι `care for a patient, be ill' (Isoc., J.), νοσηλεία f. `nursing, morbidity' (S., J., Plu.); 4. νοσακερός `id.'

Substant. 1. νόσανσις f. `getting ill' (Arist.: ὑγίανσις; *νοσαίνω); 2. unclear νοσίμη (leg. - ήμη?) = νόσημα (Theognost.).
    Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
    Etymology: From νόσος: νοῦσος we conclude to *νόσϜος (Schulze Q. 115 with Aufrecht KZ 1, 120). Beside the also in Ionic younger νοσέω, ep. νοῦσος can also be understood as a false rewriting of ΝΟΣΟΣ for *νόσσος; then the ep. form must have been taken over by Hdt. and Hp. Schwyzer 227 a. 308, cf. Wackernagel Unt. 86; s. also Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 162 and Lejeune Traité de phon. 117. -- Several explanations, which have at best hypothetic value, as Brugmann Sächs.

  • 111 οὑδός

    Grammatical information: m.
    Meaning: `threshold' (Il.).
    Other forms: ὀδός (Att.), ὠδός (Cyrene, H.)
    Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]
    Etymology: Unexplained. A supposed basis *ὀδϜός (Schwyzer 301; cf. Schulze Q. 113 w. n. 9 a. Add., Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 162) makes connection with οὖδας possible, if one accepts this as a generalized Ion. form (Att. *ὄδας); J.Schmidt Pluralbild. 341; against this Schulze Q. 114 n. 1). If one furher wants to connect Arm. getin, Hitt. utne (s. οὖδας), one must, for οὖδας and οὑδός, start from ὀ-Ϝοδ- (with vowelprothesis), beside ὀδός from *Ϝοδ-ός (WP. 1, 254; Belardi Doxa 3, 217, where *ὀ-Ϝεδας is posited); not attractive. To be rejected ( ὁδός, ἔδαφος) Brugmann IF 13, 85 a.o.; against it Solmsen KZ 32, 286. - The word could well be Pre-Greek.

    Etymology: From στενός: στεινός: στέννος follows PGr. *στενϜός (cf. also Att. στεν(Ϝ)ό-τερος, - τατος), a thematic enlargement of the suffix combination - γ-ρ- is seen in στενυ-γρός (s. Schwyzer 496 w. n. 9 a. lit., Chantraine Form. 225, also Specht Ursprung 192 f.) and the u-stem seen in Στενύ-κληρος (Schw. 472, Chantr. 122); beside it the s-stem in στένος (Porzig Satzinhalte 247). - Isolated. Hypotheses of doubtful worth in Bq and WP. 2, 627, Pok. 1021 f.; new attempt by Machek Zeitschr. f. Slaw. 1, 35 and Ling.

  • 115 tindómerel

    also capitalized Tindómerel fem. name "daughter of twilight", a kenning poetic name of the nightingale; = Sindarin Tinúviel. TIN, SEL-D, SA:tin; "Tindómrl" in mirrored Tengwar in VT47:37 would seem to be an incomplete annotation of the same word. The form Tindómiel UT:210 could well be an alternative Quenya equivalent of Tinúviel, and it is possibly to be preferred because the status of the ending -rel "daughter" is uncertain it was to represent older -zel, -sel corresponding to the independent word seldë, but Tolkien changed the meaning of this word from "daughter" to "child", and since the word for "child" appears as hína in later texts, it may be that seldë and the corresponding ending -rel were dropped altogether.

        They were all sober people and the wine they had drunk went to their heads (W. S. Maugham). Its freshness went a little to his head, so impregnated with ozone or iodine, or whatever it was nowadays (J. Galsworthy)
       2) вcкpужить кoму-л. гoлoву (пoxвaлaми, кoкeтcтвoм и т. п.)
        But alongside her hard efficiency Dinny could well perceive a strange almost feline fascination that would go to any man's head if she chose that it should (J. Galsworthy). The publishers had praised his novel pretty highly and it rather went to his head (E. Hemingway)

    WITH ACC.
    A. [Ulf. begitan = ευρίσκειν; A. S. getan; Engl. get; O. H. G. gezan]:—to get; this use of the word, which is so common in Engl., is dying out in Icel.; it is found in the old poems, esp. in the old Hm.; it is used in law phrases, but is rare in common prose, even in the oldest Sagas; geta þögn, to get silence, a hearing, Höfuðl. 3, Hm. 8; geta orðstír, to get fame; en orðstír deyr aldrigi hveim sér góðan getr, 75; orðstír of gat, Eirekr at þat, Höfuðl.; ey getr kvikr kú, Hm. 69; sjaldan liggjandi úlfr lær um getr, né sofandi maðr sigr, 57; ef hann sylg um getr, 17; né þat máttu … geta hvergi, they could nowhere get it, Hým. 4; gambantein at geta, gambantein ek gat, Skm. 34; hvar gaztú vára aura, Vkv. 12; geta gjaforð, to marry, Alm. 6: geta sér, to get for oneself; hættr er heimis-kviðr nema sér góðan geti, Sdm. 25; sá er sæll er sér um getr lof ok líknstafi, Hm. 8; er sér getr slíkan sefa, Hkm. 19; góðs um æðis, ef sér geta mætti, if he could get it, Hm. 4; geta gjöld, laun e-s, 64, 124, Gm. 3; geta gott af e-m, to get good of one, Hm. 43, 44:—in law, nema hann getí þann kvið, at …, unless he can get that verdict, that …, Grág. i. 17; goðinn seksk ef hann getr engi (acc.) til at nefna féránsdóm, 95; ella skal hverr þeirra geta mann fyrir sik, 26:—in common prose, biðja konu þeirrar er honum væri sómi í, ef hann gæti, Fms. xi. 47; veit ek eigi hvar sú kona sitr er mér sé mikit happ í at geta, Ld. 88: to get, earn, svá at hann megi sér mat geta af sínu fé eðr verkum, Grág. i. 293:—to get, learn, fátt gat ek þegjandi þar, Hm. 104; lengi man þat er ungr getr, an old saying, Ísl. ii. 248; þá skal hann eiga stefnu við fimm lögmenn, þá er hann má helzt geta af (five lawyers of whom he can best learn, i. e. five of the wisest men of law) áðr hann segi hvern þátt upp, Grág. i. 3.
    2. with dat. of the person added, mostly in reference to feeding or entertaining; get þér vel at borði þínu, keep a good table, Sks. 20; get þú váluðum vel, entertain well the poor, Hm. 136; nú er honum vel getið ( he has good cheer) af gnógum mat ok góðum drykk, Str. 7; geta e-m sumbl, to give a feast to one, Ls. 8; geta e-m fótlaug, to get him a foot-bath, Hkv. 2. 37; geta e-m drápu, to entertain one with a poem, Sighvat: the phrase, geta sér (e-m) vel, ílla, to do, cause good or evil to one; ofrmælgi hygg ek at ílla geti hveim er …, a loose tongue will bring evil to any one that …, Vþm. 10; en ef hann forðask minn fund þá mun hann sér ílla geta í því, if he shuns me he will do worse to himself, Orkn. 252 (in a verse).
    II. joined to an infinitive, a participle, or a supine, to get to do (fá, q. v., is used in a similar sense),—hence to be able:
    1. almost like an auxil. verb,
    α. with infin. but without ‘at;’ ek gat’k unna Gunnari, I got to love G., Óg. 21; en sá gat taka við syndum, Sl. 6; ek gat líta, I got to see, beheld, Korm. 14 (in a verse); ek gat blóta, Hallfred (Fs. 94); getum hræra, we do rear, Edda; geta sjá, to get to see, Hkr. i. 205 (in a verse); hann gat teygja at sér, he did draw to himself, Edda 65 (in a verse); geta fæða, to give birth to, Am. 103; ef hann eignask getr, Hm. 78; hveim er eiga getr, Hkv. Hjörv. 9:—with ‘at,’ esp. in the phrase, geta at sjá, líta; þá geta þeir Hákon jarl at líta, earl H. got to see, behold, Fms. xi. 131; þá gátu menn at sjá land fyrir stafu fram, 656 C. 22; Sölvi gat at líta hvar þeir flýðu, Nj. 247; Enok gat at eiga þann son, Stj. 45; gat at heita, Rm. 42.
    β. with part. acc., with a notion of being able, Lat. posse; Gyðingar gátu enga sök sannaða, the Jews could not prove any of their charges, 656 C. 19; því mér lízt svá, sem vér munim þá aldri sótta geta, Nj. 197; ef vér getum Harald Gráfeld af lífi tekinn, Fms. xi. 21; ok geta rétta fylking sína, 131; mikinn fisk ok fagran ok gátu eigi veiddan, iv. 89.
    γ. so also with sup.; gátu þeir ekki at gört, Nj. 115; ok hætta á hvárt ek geta keypt (kaup, v. l.) fyrir yðr. if I can get a bargain for you, 157; Björn gat séð ( beheld) manna-reiðina, 260; ef ek gæta vel fyrir mér séð, 22; sem mest gat hann flutt eptir sér, Ó. H. 85; eigi at heldr gat hann veitt þann íkorna, id.; ef ek get eigi fylgt yðr, Fms. vi. 211.
    2. absol. in old writers geta seems never to occur in the sense of to be able, but only periphrastically as above; but in mod. usage geta has almost displaced the old verb kunna in this sense, e. g. eg get það ekki, I cannot; getr-ðú komið, canst thou come? ef hann hefði getað, if he could have; ekki þurfti, eg gat, I could, and endless other instances.
    III. impers. there is got, there is, cp. Germ. es giebt; eigi getr slíkan ( there is none such) í konungs herbergjum, Fms. vii. 148; þar getr stein (acc.) er asbestos heitir, there is got the stone asbestos, xi. 415; eigi getr vitrara mann, no wiser man is to be got; slíka menn getr varla til vitrleiks, Lv. 54; þar getr reykelsi, Hb, 8.
    IV. reflex., in the phrase, e-m getsk at e-u, one is pleased at a thing, one likes it; því at mér gezk vel at þér, because I like thee well, Fms. i. 66; ok mun mér ekki at getask, nema hann sé sæmilega af höndum leystr, and I shall not be pleased, unless …, Ld. 298; at þú fengir mér konu þá er mér gætisk at, Fms. i. 289; honum gatsk ílla at þessu, Ld. 104; eru þeir nokkurir hér at þér getisk eigi at, Fms. vii. 104; konungr sagði at honum gatsk eigi at þeirri sætt svá búit, ix. 486; haf þökk fyrir, ok getsk mér nú vel at, vi. 372; segir, at henni getsk eigi at þessi ætlan, Finnb. 312; Þorgrímr bað hann til hætta hve honum gætisk at, 336; svá hefir þeim at getisk vápnum Franceisa, so they have tasted thus far the weapons of the French, Karl. 184: with sup., láta sér getið at e-u, to take interest in, be pleased with; eigi læt ek mér at einu getið, ‘tis not my taste to have always the same, I want some change, something new, Grett. 149 new Ed.; lát þér at góðu getið, rejoice in the good, Hm. 129.
