Grammatical information: adj.Meaning: `strong, mighty' (Il.).Other forms: (also ὄμβριμος with anticipation of the nasal; cf.

(s. βρίμη), with further βρίθω, βριαρός. The shortness of the ι in ὄβριμος could have been taken from ἄλκιμος and other nearly synonymous adj., but the ὀ- gives serious problems: neither a prefix (Brugmann Grundr.2 II: 2, 817) nor a prothetic vowel (Meillet BSL 27, 129ff.) gives a solution; cf. Austin Lang. 17, 87.
