*(Ϝ)ίμβω?Grammatical information: v.Meaning: `put (the horses) to (the car)'?Other forms: Note that there is no evidence for the form ἴμβω, with - β-. Aor. ἴμψας ζεύξας. Θετταλοί H.Derivatives: Ἴμψιος Ποσειδῶν ὁ Ζύγιος; γιμβάναι (= Ϝ-) ζεύγανα H. Bechtel Dial. 1, 206 adduces the Boeot. PN Ϝιμππίδας.Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: Two hypotheses: to Lat. vinciō `wind around, vicia `vetch' with labio-velar auslaut (s. W.-Hofmann s. v.); to Goth. bi-waibjan `wind around' etc. (Persson Beitr. 1, 323 n. 1); in both cases the meanings seem not to fit very well. I see no reason to connect the two glosses ἰψών δεσμωτήριον H. (but see also on ἶπος), and ἰψόν τὸν κισσόν. Θ\<ο\> ύριοι. Note that the gloss Ἴμψιος has - μψ- with - σ- though it is hardly an aorist.

εὔτεκνος, ον (s. τέκνον; Eur. et al.; Philo). In ISm 13:2 the word is understood by Zahn and Hilgenfeld as an adj., in which case any of the var. mngs. found in other lit. is applicable: with many children, w. good children, fortunate because of children. Other scholars, including Lghtf., Funk, Krüger, Bihlmeyer, treat εὔ. as a proper name, because εὔ. as an adj. seems not to fit well into the context. On the other hand, Εὔ. as a name is unattested to date; but s. OGI 53 and the grammarian Εὐτέκνιος in Pauly-W. VI 1492.—DELG s.v. τίκτω. -
