4 κανθός
Grammatical information: m.Meaning: `corner of the eye' (Arist., Nic., Gal.); poet. `eye' (hell.); acc. to H. also `opening in the roof for the smoke, Rauchfang, καπνοδόκη' and `pot, kettle, χυτρόπους' (the last Sicilian).Derivatives: From here the hypostasis ἐγκάνθιος `which is in the κανθός' (Dsc., Gal.) with ἐγκανθίς f. `tumour in the inner angle of the eye' (Cels., Gal.), acc. to Poll. 2, 71 = `inner corner of the eye'; also ἐπικανθίς `id.' (Hippiatr., v. l. in Poll. l. c.). Deriv. κανθώδης `rounded' (Call. Fr. 504 coni. Hemsterhuys; codd. καθν-, κυκν-).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Not well explained. From κανθώδης in Callimachos to conclude to a original meaning `curve\/-ing' is not allowed. - One compares Celtic words, e. g. Welsh cant `iron band, brim', Gall. (Gallo-Rom.) * cantos, and a Panslavic word for `corner, angle (of a farm) etc.', e. g. Russ. kut, all from IE. * kan-tho- from a root IE. kam- in καμάρα, κάμπτω, but this root is not given in Pok. and κάμπτω (s.v.) is Pre-Greek. Thee comparison is not without poblems, first because Gr. - θ- remains unexplained, second because the Slavic words are suspected to come from the west (s. below). From Celtic comes Lat. cantus `iron band (of a wagon wheel)', from where the Romanic words for `brim, corner etc.' (Fr. chant etc.) and Germanic, NHG Kante, which are irrelevan here. - Speculative Belardi Rend. Acc. Lincei 8: 9, 610ff. (also Doxa 3, 209); his material must be sifted. - Cf. Pok. 526f.), W.-Hofmann s. cantus, Vasmer Russ. et. Wb. s. kut. - So there is no IE etymology; and an IE pre-form is impossible (*kh₂n̥dh- would hace given *καθ-). So the word is Pre-Greek.Page in Frisk: 1,777-778Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > κανθός

5 μύλη
Grammatical information: f.Meaning: `handmill, mill, (Od.), (the nether) millstone', metaph. `molar' (LXX), `knee-cap, hard formation in a woman's womb' (Hp., Arist.).Other forms: hell. a. late also μύλος m. (LXX, NT, Str.; cf. Fraenkel Nom. ag. 2,58)Compounds: Compp., e.g. μυλο-ειδής `as a millstone' (H 270), μυλή-φατος `ground by a mill' (β 355, A. R., Lyc.; after ἀρηΐ-φατος a.o.; diff. Chantraine Sprache 1, 145); χειρο-μύλη `handmill' (X.), also - μυλος ( Edict. Diocl.), - μυλον (Cass. Fel.; cf. on βούτυρον); dimin. - μύλιον (Dsc., pap.).Derivatives: A. Subst. 1. μύλαξ, - ακος m. `millstone, big rounded stone' (M161, AP, Opp.), cf. λίθαξ a.o. (Chantraine Form. 379). 2. From this with ρ-suffix μύλακρος m. `millstone' (Alcm.), pl. = γομφίοι ὀδόντες (H.); f. - ακρίς, - ίδος as attr. of λᾶας `millstone' (Alex. Aet.), as subst. `cockroach', also (influenced by ἀκρίς) `locust' (Ar. Fr. 583, Poll.); also - αβρίς `id.' (Pl. Com., Poll.; prob. after ἁβρός, ἅβρα), - ηθρίς `id.' (Poll.). 3. μυλών, - ῶνος m. `millhouse, mill' (Att.) with - ωνικός `miller' (pap.), - ώνιον dimin. (gloss.). 4. μυλωθρός m. `miller' (Att., Arist.); on the formation which is not quite clear cf. Chantraine Form. 373; from this - ωθρίς f. `milleress' name of a comedy of Eubulos; - ωθρικός `belonging to a miller' (Plu.), - ωθρέω `grind' (Men.); backformation - ωθρον = μυλών (Phot.)?; also - ωθριαῖοι adjunct of καλυπ-τῆρες (= `roof-tiles'?; Delos IIa, reading uncertain); beside it μυλωρός `miller' (Aesop., Poll.), after πυλωρός a.o. 5. μυλάριον dimin. `small handmill' (pap.). 6. μυλεύς m. surn. of Zeus as keeper of mills (Lyc.; Bosshardt 67). 7. μυλίας m. ( λίθος) `millstone, stone, from which millstones were made' (Pl., Arist., Str.; Chantraine Form. 96). 8. μυλίτης m. ( λίθος, ὀδούς) `millstone, molar' (Gal.). 9. Μυλόεις ποταμὸς Άρκαδίας H.; s. Krahe Beitr. z. Namenforsch. 2. 233. -- B. Adj., all rare and late: 1. μύλ-ιος `belonging to a mill' (Procop.); 2. μυλ-ικός `id.' (Ev. Luk., Gal.); 3. - ινος `consisting of millstones' (Smyrna); 4. - αῖος `working in a mill' (AP), - αῖον n. `handmill' (pap.); 5. - ιαῖοι ὀδόντες `molars' (medic.); 6. - όεις `consisting of a millstone, belonging to a mill' (Nic., Nonn.); 7. - ητικη ἔμπλαστρος `remedy for toothache' (Gal.). -- C. Verbs, all rare. 1. μυλιάω only in ptc. μῡλιόωντες `gnashing with the teeth' (Hes. Op. 530; on - ιάω Schwyzer 732); 2. μυλόομαι `be hardened, cicatrized' (Hp.). -- On itself stands μύλλω = βινέω (Theoc. 4,58) with μυλ(λ)άς f. `whore' (Phot., Suid.), μυλλός m. `cake in the form of the pudenda muliebria' (Ath. 14, 647 a; Sicilian).Etymology: The primary verbal noun μύλη (accent as e.g. μάχη) with the secondarily arising μύλος (after λίθος or ὄνος ἀλέτης?) like the primary yot-present μύλλω deviate through the υ-vowel from the other cognate words for `grind', which show an e: o-vocalism: Celt., OIr. melim, Slav., e.g. OCS meljǫ (IE * mel-); Germ., e.g. Goth. malan, Lith. malù, Hitt. 3. sg. mallai (IE * mol-); Lat. molō, on itself ambiguous, prob. from * melō like OIr. melim. In μυλ- we must assume a zero- [or reduced] grade variant (ml̥-; mel-?) (Schwyzer 351). With μύλλω from *ml̥-i̯ō agree in Germ. OHG muljan, OWNo. mylia `crush'; on the meaning s. below, on the υ -vowel cf. φύλλον against Lat. folium. A weak grade appears also in Welsh malu `grind', as well as in Arm. malem `crush'. An u-vowel could also be found in the reduplicated Arm. ml-ml-em `rub'; (it could however also be drived from lengthened grade mēl- or mōl). The technical meaning `grind' might have been specialized from the general `rub'. As verbal noun μύλη has in Greek the character of an archaism, while μύλλω, which was degraded to an obscene meaning, was further replaced by the also old ἀλέω (s.v. and Porzig Gliederung 156), which was limited to the eastern languages. -- On itself stands μάλευρον (s.v.); remarkable and\/but suspect is the e-vowel of Myc. mereuro `meal' and meretirija `milleresses'. -- More forms in WP. 2, 284ff., Pok. 716f., W.-Hofmann and Ernout-Meillet s. molō, Fraenkel Wb. s. málti.Page in Frisk: 2,268-270Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > μύλη

10 δί̄νη
δί̄νηGrammatical information: f.Meaning: `whirlpool, eddy' (Il.)Dialectal forms: Myc. qe-qi-no-to \/gʷegʷinōtos\/, qe-qi-no-me-no \/gʷegʷinōmenos\/Compounds: βαθυδίνης (Il.)Derivatives: δινήεις, Dor. δινάεις, Aeol. διννάεις (Alc.) `whirling' (Il.); δῖνος m. `id.', also `round vessel' (Ion.-Att. etc.) with δινώδης `eddying' (D. C.) and δινωτός `with δ., rounded, covered with circles' (Hom.; δινόω only Eust.). - δῑνέω, aor. δινῆσαι etc., also δῑνεύω, ( δίννηντες ptc. pl. Sapph. 1, 11; cf. below) tr. `turn around', itr. `id.' (Il.) with δίνησις (Arist.), δίνημα (Man.), δίνευμα (conj. in Ar. Th. 122 and X. Eq. 3, 11; Orph.); - rare δινέμεν (Hes. Op. 598), δινομένην (Call.), ἀπο-δινωντι subj. `thresh' (Tab. Heracl.; uncertain; change to ἀποδιδῶντι?); Aeol. δίννω (Hdn.; Διννομένης Alc.), δινάζω (Artem. ap. Ath.). Perh. Δινών month name (when the corn is threshed).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]Etymology: Perhaps an old nasal present *δι-ν-έϜ-ω (cf. *κῑ-ν-έϜ-ω, κί̄-νυ-μαι) of which the nasal was generalized (cf. κλίνη: κλίνω). Aeol. δίνν- as in ξέννος (Schwyzer 228). Initial δι- has been compared with δίεμαι (s. v.), which Chantr. finds evident "ni pour la forme, ni pour le sens." - The Myc. forms would show an initial labiovelar, from which one would expect rather a labial. Could the form be Pre-Greek? (note that the word has in fact no etymology). Heubeck separates the Myc. forms (Cambridge Coll. Myc. Stud. 229-237).Page in Frisk: 1,395-396Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > δί̄νη
