1 πέλαγος
Grammatical information: n.Meaning: `offing, high sea, sea surface, sea' (Il.); on the meaning etc. Lesky Herm. 78, 260ff.).Compounds: Rare late compp. like πελαγο-δρόμος `sailing on, flying over the sea' (Orph., PMag. Par.), εὑ-πελαγής `lying by a fair sea' (Orph.).Derivatives: πελάγ-ιος `belonging to the sea' (trag., Th., X., Arist.; after ἅλ-ιος, θαλάσσ-ιος), - ικός `id.' (Plu.), - ῖτις f. `id.' (AP); - αῖος surn. of Poseidon (Paus.; after Άγοραῖος etc.). Verbs: πελαγ-ίζω, also with ἐν-, `to form a sea, to be flooded, to be out in the open sea, to sail on the sea' (Hdt., X., Str.) with - ισμοί pl. `experiences at sea' v.t. (Alciphr.); - όομαι `to form a sea, to overflow' (Ach. Tat.).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]Etymology: Beside πέλαγος stand with final tenuis monosyll. and w. short vowel πλάξ, - ακός f. `plain, plain of the sea etc.' (s. v.); with voiced consonant πλάγ-ιος `athwart, transvers, sloping, crooked', s.v. w. further connections, a.o. Lat. plag-a `plain, region'. A full grade disyllabic form is further not attested, but may be found with diff. suffix in πέλανος (s. v.). (Not here the `zero grades' παλάμη, παλαστή (s. vv.). On the formation of πέλαγος cf. further τέναγος, σελαγέω (Schwyzer 496). S. also Πελασγοί. - Nothing confirms the connection of this word with * pelh₂- `spread out'; the words with πλαγ\/κ- cannot phonetically be connected. So the word seems rather Pre-Greek.Page in Frisk: 2,493Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > πέλαγος
