13 κλῆρος
Grammatical information: m.Meaning: `lot, allotment, inheritance, piece of ground' (Il.), `(Christian) clergy' (Just.).Other forms: Dor. κλᾶροςCompounds: Compp., e. g. κληρο-, κλᾱρο-νόμος `heir' with - νομέω, - νομία, - νομικός a. o. (IA, Dor.); ἄ-κληρος `without lot, without inheritance, poor' (λ 490); but ναύ-κληρος, -κλᾱρος from ναύ-κρᾱρος (s. v.); after this also ὁλό-κληρος `complete' (IA.) from *ὁλό-κρᾱρος? (Debrunner Phil. 95, 174ff.); against this with good grounds W. den Boer Mnemos. 3: 13, 143f.Derivatives: Diminut. κληρίον (AP, pap.), Dor. κλᾱρίον `notes for debt' (Plu. Agis 13); adj. κληρικός `belonging to a\/the κλ.' (Vett. Val.); denomin. verb κληρόω, κλᾱρόω `cast lots, choose by lot', midd. `have allotted one, obtain by lot' (IA., Dor.) with κλήρωσις `choosing by lot', κληρωτήριον `urn for casting lots, room for voting', κληρωτός `who can\/is chosen by lot' (IA.).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]Etymology: Prop. "sherd of stone, piece of wood" (used as lot). Identical with a Celtic word for `table': OIr. clār, Welsh claur, and as expression of the cartwright Bret. kleur `pitch-fork of a wagon'; the Celtic words seem only very remotely cognate if at all (a `table' is hardly a piece broken off). Connected with κλάω `break off' with the same ablaut as in κλῆ-μα, κλᾶ-μα, Lat. clā-d-ēs. Further s. κλάω, but see my doubts there.Page in Frisk: 1,872-873Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > κλῆρος

14 παλλω
παλλω, - ομαιGrammatical information: v.Meaning: `to sway, to rock, to shake lots, to draw lots', midd. `to swing oneself', also `to jump, to hop'.Other forms: Aor. πῆλαι (Il.), midd. πήλασθαι (Call.), πάλτο ( ἀν-, κατ-έπαλτο s. bel.), redupl. ἀμ-πεπαλών (Hom.; also πεπάλ-εσθε, - έσθαι for - ασθε, - άσθαι resp. - αχθε, - άχθαι? s.bel.), aor. pass. ἀνα-παλείς (Str.), perf. midd. πέπαλμαι (A.).Compounds: Also w. prefix, late ἀνα- ( ἀμ-). -- As 2. member in ἐγχέσ-, σακέσ-παλος `swaying the spear, shield' (ep. Il.; Trümpy Fachausdrücke 28).Derivatives: 1. πάλος m. `(shaken) lot' (Sapph., Hdt., trag.), ἄμπαλ-ος m. `fresh casting' (of the lot, Pi.); ἀναπάλ-η f. name of a dance (Ath.); 2. παλτόν n. `javelin' (A., X.) with ἐπάλταξα παλτῳ̃ ἔβαλον H., - ός adj. (S.); 3. παλμός m. `vibration, pulsation' (Hp., Arist., Epicur.) with - ώδης `full of vibrations' (Hp.); παλματίας σεισμός `heavy earthquake' (Arist.; cf. βρασματίας s. βράσσω); 4. πάλσις ( ἀνά-, ἀπό- παλλω) f. `pulsation etc.' (Arist., Epicur.). -- Intensive παι-πάλλειν σείειν H. On a velar enlargement seem to go back *παλ-άσσομαι, πεπάλ-αχθε, - άχθαι (H 171, ι 331); for these difficult perfects perh. redupl. aor. - εσθε, - έσθαι must be posited (Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 396 with Döderlein; diff. Bechtel Lex. 266).Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: As common basis of all forms served παλ- (*πάλ-ι̯ω, *πάλ-σαι); through false analysis of the compounds κατ-επ-αλτο, ἀν-επ-αλτο (to ἅλλομαι `jump, hop') in κατ-, ἀν-έπαλτο one had an apparently augmented ἔ-παλτο, from where πάλτο and backformed πάλλομαι = ἅλλομαι arose (Geiss Münch. Stud. 11, 62ff. with Leumann Hom. Wörter 60 ff., with lit. a. further details). -- No cognates outside Greek. The connection with Lat. pellō, pe-pul-ī `set in movement with a push' (Curtius 268 with Fick, Ernout-Meillet) seems possible in spite of Solmsen Wortforsch. 18 f., Bq and WP. 2, 57; cf. παλμός = pulsus; further s. πελάζω (not ἀπελλαι)}. Here also Slav., e.g. Russ. polóch `revolt, commotion, confusion' (Solmsen PBBeitr. 27, 364, WP. 2, 52; further lit. in Vasmer s.v.)? Not with Fraenkel Mél. Bq 1, 358 and Pok. 801 to pel- `flow, swim' (cf. πολύς, πλέω, πίμπλημι); diff., also to be rejected, Palmer Glotta 27, 134ff., Richardson Trans. Phil. Soc. 1936, 101 ff. -- Hardly here πελεμίζω, πόλεμος, s. vv. - The analysis given is of course quite uncertain.Page in Frisk: 2,469Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > παλλω
