81 παιάν
παιάν, - ᾶνοςGrammatical information: m.Meaning: name of a hail-song and hymn, esp. for Apollo, paean; also personified as divine physician (Hom.), later surn. of Apollo, appellat. `physician, saviour'; also name of a verse-foot (Arist., Heph.).Other forms: παιήων, - ονος (Il.). παιών, - ῶνος (IA.; cf. Wackernagel Glotta 14, 61ff. = Kl. Schr. 2, 869 ff.), πάων, - ονος (Aeol.); παιάν, - ᾶνος (Dor., trag., hell.).Derivatives: 1. παιών-ιος `belonging to paean, healing, saving' (A., S., Ar.), f. - ιάς (AP), - ίς (S. E.); also - ία f. surn. of Athena (Paus.), appellat. plantname `peony' (Thphr., Ps.-Dsc.; Strömberg 99); παιαν-ίδες pl. adjunct of ἀοιδαί (Pi.); Παιηόν-ιος = Παιώνιος ( APl.); παιαν-ίας m. `paean-singer' (Sparta). 2. παιων-ικός = παιώνιος (Plu., Gal.), παιαν-ικός `paean-like' (Ath.). 3. παιηοσύνη ἰατρεία H. 4. παιων-ίζω (IA.), - αν-ίζω (Dor.) `to strike up a paean, to worship with a p.' with - ισμός m. (Th., Str., D. H.), - ισταί m. pl. `guild of the paean-singers' (Rome, Piräus, II--IIIp). On the unclear Att. name of a deme Παιανία Wackernagel l.c.Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Probably disjoined from the exclamation ἰη παιήων, ἰὼ παιάν (as initial of a song), first as appellative, basis *παιά-(Ϝ)ων like Ιά(Ϝ)ονες, κοινά(Ϝ)ων (s. Ἴωνες a. κοινός w. lit.), but further unclear. After Schwyzer IF 30, 445 f. to παίω `beat' through *παῖϜα, *παϜίᾱ `blow' as "who heals illnesses through magic (Apollon)". Also to παίω, but with different (less probable) argumentation Diehl RhM 89, 90 a. 109 ff. Diff. (to παύω) Pisani Rend. Acc. Lincei 6:5, 208. -- The similarity with the peoples name Παίονες may be not accidental (Macurdy Glotta 6, 297ff. Tribal god of the P.; thus Kretschmer Glotta 21, 176f.). - The word may well be of Pre-Greek origin; cf.

4) Cono Sur (Cos) patch, darnSANTO As well as celebrating their birthday, many Spaniards and Latin Americans celebrate their santo or onomástica. This is the day when the saint whose name they have is honoured in the Christian calendar. It used to be relatively common for newborn babies to be named after the saint on whose day they were born. So a boy born on 25 July (Saint James's day) stood a good chance of being christened "Santiago". The tradition may be dying out now that parents are no longer restricted to names from the Christian calendar. In Spain, as with birthdays, the person whose santo it is normally buys the drinks if they go out with friends.* * *I- ta adjetivo1) (Relig)a) <lugar/mujer/vida> holyb) ( con nombre propio) St, SaintSanto Domingo — Saint Dominic; ver tb San
