It may be an interpretation of the name Yahweh already current, or an attempt to show reverence for the divine name by preserving it unchanged, or simply one more of the grammatical peculiarities so frequent in Rv (Meyer6-Bousset 1906, 159ff; Mlt. 9, note 1; cp.

Gramm. 1892, 211; AJannaris, An Histor. Gk. Grammar 1897, §1507). Yet just at this point the textual tradition varies considerably, and the choice of prep. is prob. at times influenced by the wish to express special nuances of mng. Lk 8:29b v.l.

Chantr. notes that the word is originally used of the growth of damaged tissue; he translates ἄλθετο χείρ with "le bras se guérit". - However, the meaning `heal' is not evidently connected with ἀλ- `grow, feed'; the glosses give systematically the meaning `heal' etc.; θεραπεία means also `medical or surgical treatment'; θερμασία is less clear (false reading?); αὔξει also deviates (is it for ἀλδαίνω?). - The name Ἄλθηπ\/ φος is clearly Pre-Greek (cf. the river Αἴσηπος); so may be Άλθαία (the suffix - αια, - εια is also known in Pre-Greek); but we cannot be sure that the names belong to the verb. - An alternative etymology connects Skt. r̥dhnóti `obtain luckily', Rix MSS 27 (1970) 88 and Mayrhofer EWAia 1, 118.Page in Frisk: 1,72Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ἀλθαίνω

55 αὖος
Grammatical information: adj.Meaning: `dry' (Il.).Dialectal forms: Att. αὗοςDerivatives: αὐονή (Archil.), cf. καλλονή, ἡδονή (Schwyzer 490, Chantr. Form. 207). - αὐαλέος `id.' (Hes.) like ἀζαλέος a. o.; also αὐσόν ξηρόν H. with s-Suffix as in ῥυσός, γαυσός etc. (Schwyzer 516, Chantr. Form. 454). On αὐσταλέος, αὐστηρός s. below. - Denom. verb: αὐαίνω, αὑαίνω (comp. with ἀπ-, ἀφ-, κατ-, καθ-αυαίνω) `dry'; αὐασμός `ds.' (Hp.; Schwyzer 493, Chantr. 141f.; αὑαψή s.v.. - αὕω ξηραίνω (Hdn.; also ἀφαύει Ar. Eq. 394, which Solmsen Unt. 277 corrects in ἀφᾱνεῖ) looks like a primary verb, but may be denom. (Schwyzer 723). Two adj. with related meaning: αὐσταλέος `dried up' (Od.; cf. αὑαλέος above and Bechtel Lex. s. v.) and αὐστηρός `hard' (Hp.) presuppose a verbal adj.(?) *αὖστος; but cf. the synonym καύστ-ειρα.Etymology: αὖος, αὗος is cognate with Lith. saũsas, OCS suxъ, OE sēar, which suggest PIE *saũsos `dry'. (Skt. śoṣa- (assimilated from *soṣa-) m. `the making dry' is secondary. Uncertain Alb. ʮaj `dry', Demiraj, Alb. Etym.) Zero grade * sus- in Skt. śúṣ-ka- (\< *suṣ-ka-) = Av. huška-, OP. uška- `dry' (perh. also in Lat. sūdus `dry, bright' \< * suz-d-). From this form verbs like Skt. śúṣ-yati, Latv. sust `become dry'. - Lubotsky (KZ 98, 1985, 1 - 10) argues that the Greek form goes back on * h₂sus-, as is shown by ἀυσταλέος, which has five syllables. He thinks it was a perfect ptc. of * h₂es- `be dry' (not `burn, glow'), seen in ἄζω and Lat. āreō (with redupl. * h₂e-h₂s-). Balto-Slavic and Germanic derive from * h₂sous- with sec. o-grade. This also solves the problem that PIE had no *a. -- S. also αὐχμός.Page in Frisk: 1,188-189Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > αὖος

The meaning `summer' is a Greek innovation (`heat' = θέρμη, θάλπος). In the sense of `harvest' θέρος may be from θερίζω *`do summerwork'. With the thematic root present θέρομαι agrees OIr. fo-geir `warms, heats'. The other languages have diff. formations: Arm. ǰer-nu-m, aor. ǰer-ay `warm oneself' (: Skt. ghr̥-ṇo-ti `lights, burns' [gramm.], cf. ghr̥-ṇá- m. `glow, heat'), OCS grě-jǫ grě-ti sę `warm oneself' (gorjǫ, gorěti `burn') etc. - More forms in Bq, Pok. 493ff., W.-Hofmann s. formus and fornāx, Ernout-Meillet s. formus, Vasmer Russ. et.

Oslo. 23, 46ff.).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: This root, which is well represented in Greek, has a verbal stem καμπ- without ablaut, with the primary verbal noun καμπ-ή (with καμπ-ύλος?) and κάμπ-τω with κάμψαι etc., and has in the other languages scattered nominal representatives, partly in metaph. meanings and therefore not always certain: Latv. kampis `curved wood, hook for a kettle', Lith. kam̃pas `corner, side, hidden place', also `curved wood at the collar (of a horse)', with which agree both Lat. campus `field' (prop. `(bow) Biegung, (lower field) Niederung'?) and a German. adj. `mutilated, lame', e. g. Goth. hamfs. "Beside it stands with final -b (cf. on σκαμβός) a Celtic adjective `curved', OIr. camm etc. (\< * cambo-; to which Krahe Beitr. z. Namenforschung 3, 231 connects the brook- and place-name Kobenz \< * Kambantia); cf. further Campona GN in Pannonia). - Further there are in Baltic several words for `curved etc.' with u-vowel, Lith. kum̃pas `curved', Latv. kùmpt `become bent, verschrumpfen' a. o., which may have a reduced vowel-grade, but at the same time have a popular character and therefore can only be added here with reserve." The same applies perhaps even more to a few Skt. words: kumpa- `lame in the hand' (lex.) and, because of the meaning, Skt. kampate `tremble'; cf. Mayrhofer KEWA s.vv." More forms in Pok. 525, W.-Hofmann s. campus, Fraenkel Lit. et. Wb. s. kam̃pas. - From κάμψαι perh. Lat. campsāre `sail around, bend off' (Span. cansar etc., Rice Lang. 19, 154ff.); from καμπή Lat.-Rom. camba, gamba (see Fohalle Mélanges Vendryes 157ff., Kretschmer Glotta 16, 166f.) and Alb. kāmbë `leg, foot' (Mann Lang. 17, 19 and 26, 380); from καμπύλος Osman. kambur `hump, humpy' \> NGr. καβούρης (Maidhof Glotta 10, 10); in Byz. γαμματίζω = κάμπτω, - ομαι Amantos assumes (s. Kretschmer Glotta 16, 179) a noun *γάμμα, *κάμμα. - I have maintained here Frisk's discussion, as it shows clearly how unreliable the material is; it is rather from a substratum language. To this comes that IE would require a form * kh₂mp-, a type that is quite rare. The conclusion can only be that καμπ- is of Pre-Greek origin. - Cf. on γαμψός and γνάμτω, for which I also arrived at this conclusion.Page in Frisk: 1,774-775Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > κάμπτω

(Epich., IA.)Meaning: `crab' (on the meaning Thompson Fishes s. v.), metaph.. `ulcer, pair of pincers, kind of shoe etc.', also name of a constellation (Scherer Gestirnnamen 167f.). -Derivatives: Diminut. καρκίνιον (Arist., Hp.), also `kind of slipper' (Herod.), καρκινάς, - άδος f. (Gal., Ael.); καρκινίας m. name of a precious stone (Plin.; after the colour; as καπνίας a. o.; Chantraine Formation 94); καρκινευτής `crab-catcher' (Artem. 2, 14; after ἁλιευτής, ὀρνιθευτής a. o.); καρκινώδης `crab-like' (Arist., medic.). Denomin. verb καρκινόω `bend, crook one's fingers' (Antiph., Thphr.; cf. Strömberg Theophrastea 65), - όομαι `become cancerous, suffer from cancer' (Hp.) with καρκίνωμα `cancer' (medic.), καρκίνωσις `formation of dangerous growth' (Aët.); καρκίνωθρον (codd. - αθρον, - ηθρον) plant name, `Polygonum aviculare' (Dsc. 4, 4; after Strömberg Pflanzennamen 147 prop. "Krebsmittel" [?]; rather of the crab-like spreading roots).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Clearly connected with Lat. cancer `crab', Skt. karkaṭa- `id.'; the morphological details however are not all clear. As in Lat. cancer from * car-cro-s καρκίνος may also have had a dissimilation of r-sounds with addition of the ινο-suffix (cf. Schwyzer 490); on the formation of Skt. karkaṭa- Wackernagel-Debrunner 2: 2, 157 (etymological doubts in Mayrhofer KEWA s. v.). - From καρκίνος as LW [loanword]. Skt. karki(n)- `the crab in the zodiac' (with karka- `crab' [lex.] as backformation?). - Connection with the adjective for `hard' (s. κάρκαρος, κράτος) seems quite possible. Cf. W.-Hofmann s. cancer. - The Sanskrit word is probably not cognate (Mayrhofer, EWAia 64, Fur. 129). Fur. connects κάρχαι καρκίνοι, καὶ \<κ\> όχλοι. Σικελοί H. [not mentioned in Frisk, DELG], which is evident. This poves Pre-Greek origin. Fur. doubts the correctnes of Lat. cancer \< * karkro-, which cannot be proven. Fur. prefers to connct γάγγραινα, γάγγλιον. - ινο- can be a Pre-Greek suffix (Fur. 129 n. 54; Beekes, Pre-Greek, Suffixes; Fur. also comments on the accentuation). He also adduces (130) the PN Κερκίνος and the river name Κερκινεύς (Thessaly) with *κερκιν-.Page in Frisk: 1,789-790Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > καρκίνος
