S. lifan; Engl. live; O. H.

Grammatical information: n.Meaning: `bone' (Il.), also `stone of fruit' (pap. IIIa.; s. below).Compounds: Few compp., e.g. ὀστ(ε)ο-κόπος m. name of `a bone-disease' (Hp., Thphr., Gal.), ὁλ-όστεον n. `Plantago Bellardi', prop. subst. bahuvrihi "consisting only of bones", from its healing power; cf. ὀστεο-κόλλος f. and Strömberg Pflanzenn. 88 f. a. 32.Derivatives: Diminut.: ὀστ-άριον n. (medic.), - αρίδιον n. (Pall.); adj. -έϊνος (IA.), - ινος (Ar. Ach. 863 [Boeot.], Arist.), -όϊνος (Aq.) `made of bone', - ώδης (X., Arist.), - εώδης (Plu.) `bony'; - ίτης m. `belonging to the bones' (Ruf.; Redard 101).Etymology: Old word for `bone', in several languages in varying form retained. An orig. consonantstam, seen in Av. ast- (e.g. gen. ast-ō, acc. as-ča \< * ast-ča) and in Lat. os ( = oss, from * ost), gen. oss-is, was in other languages in diff. ways transformed, e.g. in Skt. nom. acc. ásth-i, gen. asth-n-ás with i: n-interchange, in Hitt. ḫašt-ai, gen. ḫaštii̯-as with ablaut ai: i. Greek ὀστ-έον remainds of Skt. hŕ̥d-ayam `heart' beside hā́rd-i `id.' (s. καρδία) and so goes back on - ειον; Sommer Sprachgesch. u. Wortbed. 426f.); cf. further Venet. ostiiakon `ossuarium'. -- Further forms from several languages w. rich lit. in WP. 1, 185 f., Pok. 783, W.-Hofmann s. os; also v. Windekens ZDMG 110,314ff.

* * *(gen. pl. kirkna), f. church.* * *u, f., gen. pl. kirkna; [Scot. kirk; Dan. kirke; Germ. kirche; but Engl. church]I. a kirk, church; timbr-k., a timber church; stein-k., a stone church; the earliest Scandin. churches were all built of timber, the doors and pillars being ornamented with fine carved work, see Worsaae, Nos. 505–508; in the 12th and following centuries the old timber churches were one by one replaced by stone buildings. In Denmark the last timber church was demolished at the beginning of the 17th century, but in Norway some old churches (called stav-kyrkior) have remained up to the present time, see an interesting essay in Nord. Aarb. 1869, p. 185 sqq. Many passages in the Sagas refer to the building of churches, especially in records of the years following after 1000, see esp. Ld. ch. 74 sqq.; a curious legend, for the purpose of encouraging men to build churches, is told in Eb. ch. 49,—that a man could grant as many souls a seat in heaven as the church which he built held persons; ok þegar er þingi var lokit (the summer of A. D. 1000) lét Snorri goði göra kirkju at Helgafelli, en aðra Styrr mágr hans undir Hrauni, ok hvatti pat mjök til kirkju-görðar, at þat var fyrirheit kennimanna, at maðr skyldi jafnmörgum eiga heimolt rúm í himinríki, sem standa mætti í kirkju þeirri er hann lét göra, Eb. l. c.

74 NÍÐ
n. pl. the waning moon; the time before new moon; Máni stýrir göngu tungls ok ræðr nýjum ok niðum, and rules its waxing and waning.* * *1.n. [Ulf. neiþ = φθόνος; A. S. nîð; O. H. G. nid; Germ. neid; Dan.-Swed. nid]:—contumely, Vsp. 56; segja e-m níð, Akv. 35.2. particularly as a law term, a libel, liable to outlawry:—of a libel in verse, yrkja, kveða níð um e-n, Nj. 70; ef maðr kveðr níð um mann at lögbergi ok varðar skóggang, Grág. (Kb.) ii. 184: the classical passages in the Sagas are Hkr. O. T. ch. 36, cp. Jómsv. S. ch. 13 (Fms. xi. 42, 43), Kristni S. ch. 4, Nj. ch. 45, Bjarn. 33 (the verse). Another and even graver kind of níð was the carving a person’s likeness (tré-níð) in an obscene position on an upraised post or pole (níð-stöng), for an instance of which see Bjarn. 33; ef maðr görir níð um annan ok varðar þat fjörbaugs-garð, en þat er níð ef maðr skerr tréníð manni eðr rístr eða reisir manni níðstöng, Grág. i. 147; when the post was set up, a horse’s head was also put up, and a man’s head was carved on the pole’s end, with dire Runes and imprecations; all this is described in a lively manner in Eg. ch. 60 and Vd. ch. 34, Landn. 4. ch. 4, Rd. ch. 25. The beina-kerlinga-vísur of mod. times are no doubt a remnant of the old níðstöng;—certain stone pyramids (varða) along mountain-roads are furnished with sheeps’ legs or horses’ heads, and are called beina-kerling ( bone carline); one of the most noted is on the Kaldadal, as one passes from the north to the south of Iceland, it is even marked in the map; a passing traveller alights and scratches a ditty called beina-kerlinga-vísa (often of a scurrilous or even loose kind) on one of the bones, addressing it to the person who may next pass by; for a specimen see Bjarni 193, as also in poems of Jón Þorláksson, for there hardly was a poet who did not indulge in these poetical licences. In popular legends the devil always scratches his writing on a blighted horse’s bone.2.f, thus (not Nið) in Ann. Reg., a river in Norway, whence Níðar-óss, m. the famous old town in Drontheim in Norway. -

Старику от прозвища какая беда? Хоть горшком назови, только в печку не ставь. (П. Бажов, Малахитовая шкатулка) — From that time folks nicknamed the old man Yefim Gold Radish... Little the old man cared what they called him. They could call him kettle so long as they didn't put him on the fire.
- Почему он нас офицерами называет? - с неудовольствием шипел Коля. - Офицер да ещё пан! Буржуйство какое-то!.. - Пусть хоть горшком назовёт, лишь бы в печь не совал, - усмехнулся лейтенант Николай. - Здесь, Коля, люди ещё тёмные. (Б. Васильев, В списках не значился) — 'Why does he call us officers, and pans, too,' Kolya hissed, displeased. 'Bourgeois ways!' 'He can call us pots if he likes, so long as he doesn't set us on the fire,' Lieutenant Nikolai laughed. 'People are still backward here, Kolya.'
