  • 3 Á

    * * *
    a negative suffix to verbs, not;
    era útmakligt, at it is not unmeet that.
    * * *
    1.
    á, prep., often used elliptically, or even adverbially, [Goth. ana; Engl. on; Germ. an. In the Scandinavian idioms the liquid n is absorbed. In English the same has been supposed to happen in adverbial phrases, e. g. ‘along, away, abroad, afoot, again, agate, ahead, aloft, alone, askew, aside, astray, awry,’ etc. It is indeed true that the Ormulum in its northern dialect freq. uses o, even in common phrases, such as ‘o boke, o land, o life, o slæpe, o strande, o write, o naht, o loft,’ etc., v. the glossary; and we may compare on foot and afoot, on sleep (Engl. Vers. of Bible) and asleep; A. S. a-butan and on-butan (about); agen and ongean (again, against); on bæc, aback; on life, alive; on middan, amid. But it is more than likely that in the expressions quoted above, as well as in numberless others, as well in old as in modern English, the English a- as well as the o- of the Ormulum and the modern Scottish and north of England o- are in reality remains of this very á pronounced au or ow, which was brought by the Scandinavian settlers into the north of England. In the struggle for supremacy between the English dialects after the Conquest, the Scandinavian form á or a won the day in many cases to the exclusion of the Anglo-Saxon on. Some of these adverbs have representatives only in the Scandinavian tongues, not in Anglo-Saxon; see below, with dat. B. II, C. VII; with acc. C. I. and VI. The prep. á denotes the surface or outside; í and ór the inside; at, til, and frá, nearness measured to or from an object: á thus answers to the Gr. επί; the Lat. in includes á and i together.]
    With dat. and acc.: in the first case with the notion of remaining on a place, answering to Lat. in with abl.; in the last with the notion of motion to the place, = Lat. in with acc.
    WITH DAT.
    A. Loc.
    I. generally on, upon; á gólfi, on the floor, Nj. 2; á hendi, on the hand (of a ring), 48, 225; á palli, 50; á steini, 108; á vegg, 115; á sjá ok á landi, on sea and land. In some instances the distinction between d and i is loose and wavering, but in most cases common sense and usage decide; thus ‘á bók’ merely denotes the letters, the penmanship, ‘í’ the contents of a book; mod. usage, however, prefers ‘í,’ lesa í bók, but stafr á bók. Old writers on the other hand; á bókum Enskum, in English books, Landn. 24, but í Aldafars bók, 23 (in the book De Mensurâ Temporum, by Bede), cp. Grág. i. 76, where á is a false reading instead of at; á bréfi, the contents of a letter: of clothing or arms, mítr á höfði, sverð á hlið, mitre on head, sword on side, Fms. i. 266, viii. 404; hafa lykil á sér, on one’s person, 655 xxvii. 22; möttull á tyglum, a mantle hanging on (i. e. fastened by) laces, Fms. vii. 201: á þingi means to be present at a meeting; í þingi, to abide within a jurisdiction; á himni, á jörðu, on (Engl. in) heaven and earth, e. g. in the Lord’s Prayer, but í helviti, in hell; á Gimli, Edda (of a heavenly abode); á báti, á skipi denote crew and cargo, ‘í’ the timber or materials of which a ship is built, Eg. 385; vera í stafni á skipi, 177: á skógi, to be abroad in a wood (of a hunter, robber, deer); but to be situated (a house), at work (to fell timber), í skógi, 573, Fs. 5, Fms. iii. 122, viii. 31, xi. 1, Glúm. 330, Landn. 173; á mörkinni, Fms. i. 8, but í mörk, of a farm; á firðinum means lying in a firth, of ships or islands (on the surface of the water), þær eyjar liggja á Breiðafirði, Ld. 36; but í firði, living in a district named Firth; á landi, Nj. 98, Fms. xi. 386.
    II. á is commonly used in connection with the pr. names or countries terminating in ‘land,’ Engl. in, á Englandi, Írlandi, Skotlandi, Bretlandi, Saxlandi, Vindlandi, Vínlandi, Grænalandi, Íslandi, Hálogalandi, Rogalandi, Jótlandi, Frakklandi, Hjaltlandi, Jamtalandi, Hvítramannalandi, Norðrlöndum, etc., vide Landn. and the index to Fms. xii. In old writers í is here very rare, in modern authors more frequent; taste and the context in many instances decide. An Icelander would now say, speaking of the queen or king, ‘á Englandi,’ ruling over, but to live ‘í Englandi,’ or ‘á Englandi;’ the rule in the last case not being quite fixed.
    2. in connection with other names of countries: á Mæri, Vörs, Ögðum, Fjölum, all districts of Norway, v. Landn.; á Mýrum (in Icel.), á Finnmörk, Landn., á Fjóni (a Danish island); but í Danmörk, Svíþjóð (á Svíþjóðu is poët., Gs. 13).
    3. before Icel. farms denoting open and elevated slopes and spaces (not too high, because then ‘at’ must be used), such as ‘staðr, völlr, ból, hjalli, bakki, heimr, eyri,’ etc.; á Veggjum, Landn. 69; á Hólmlátri, id.: those ending in ‘-staðr,’ á Geirmundarstöðum, Þórisstöðum, Jarðlangsstöðum…, Landn.: ‘-völlr,’ á Möðruvöllum: á Fitjum (the farm) í Storð (the island), í Fenhring (the island) á Aski (the farm), Landn., Eg.: ‘-nes’ sometimes takes á, sometimes í (in mod. usage always ‘í’), á Nesi, Eb. 14, or í Krossnesi, 30; in the last case the notion of island, νησος, prevails: so also, ‘fjörðr,’ as, þeir börðust á Vigrafirði (of a fight o n the ice), Landn. 101, but orusta í Hafrsfirði, 122: with ‘-bær,’ á is used in the sense of a farm or estate, hón sa á e-m bæ mikit hús ok fagrt, Edda 22; ‘í bæ’ means within doors, of the buildings: with ‘Bær’ as pr. name Landn. uses ‘í,’ 71, 160, 257, 309, 332.
    4. denoting on or just above; of the sun, when the time is fixed by regarding the sun in connection with points in the horizon, a standing phrase in Icel.; sól á gjáhamri, when the sun is on the crag of the Rift, Grág. i. 26, cp. Glúm. 387; so, brú á á, a bridge on a river, Fms. viii. 179, Hrafn. 20; taka hús á e-m, to surprise one, to take the house over his head, Fms. i. 11.
    III. á is sometimes used in old writers where we should now expect an acc., esp. in the phrase, leggja sverði (or the like) á e-m, or á e-m miðjum, to stab, Eg. 216, Gísl. 106, Band. 14; þá stakk Starkaðr sprotanum á konungi, then Starkad stabbed the king with the wand, Fas. iii. 34; bíta á kampi (vör), to bite the lips, as a token of pain or emotion, Nj. 209, 68; taka á e-u, to touch a thing, lay hold of it, v. taka; fá á e-u, id. (poët.); leggja hendr á (better at) síðum, in wrestling, Fms. x. 331; koma á úvart á e-m, to come on one unawares, ix. 407 (rare).
    B. TEMP. of a particular point or period of time, at, on, in:
    I. gener. denoting during, in the course of; á nótt, degi, nætrþeli …, Bs. i. 139; or spec. adding a pron. or an adject., á næsta sumri, the next summer; á því ári, þingi, misseri, hausti, vári, sumri …, during, in that year …, Bs. i. 679, etc.; á þrem sumrum, in the course of three summers, Grág. i. 218; á þrem várum, Fms. ii. 114; á hálfs mánaðar fresti, within half a month’s delay, Nj. 99; á tvítugs, sextugs … aldri, á barns, gamals aldri, etc., at the age of …, v. aldr: á dögum e-s, in the days of, in his reign or time, Landn. 24, Hrafn. 3, Fms. ix. 229.
    II. used of a fixed recurrent period or season; á várum, sumrum, haustum, vetrum, á kveldum, every spring, summer …, in the evenings, Eg. 711, Fms. i. 23, 25, vi. 394, Landn. 292: with the numeral adverbs, cp. Lat. ter in anno, um sinn á mánuði, ári, once a month, once a year, where the Engl. a is not the article but the preposition, Grág. i. 89.
    III. of duration; á degi, during a whole day, Fms. v. 48; á sjau nóttum, Bárð. 166; á því meli, during that time, in the meantime, Grág. i. 259.
    IV. connected with the seasons (á vetri, sumri, vári, hausti), ‘á’ denotes the next preceding season, the last winter, summer, autumn, Eb. 40, 238, Ld. 206: in such instances ‘á’ denotes the past, ‘at’ the future, ‘í’ the present; thus í vetri in old writers means this winter; á vetri, last winter; at vetri, next winter, Eb. 68 (in a verse), etc.
    C. In various other relations, more or less metaphorically, on, upon, in, to, with, towards, against:
    I. denoting object, in respect of, against, almost periphrastically; dvelja á náðum e-s, under one’s protection, Fms. i. 74; hafa metnað á e-u, to be proud of, to take pride in a thing, 127.
    2. denoting a personal relation, in; bæta e-t á e-m, to make amends, i. e. to one personally; misgöra e-t á e-m, to inflict wrong on one; hafa elsku (hatr) á e-m, to bear love ( hatred) to one, Fms. ix. 242; hefna sín á e-m, to take revenge on one’s person, on anyone; rjúfa sætt á e-m, to break truce on the person of any one, to offend against his person, Nj. 103; hafa sár á sér, 101; sjá á e-m, to read on or in one’s face; sér hann á hverjum manni hvárt til þín er vel eðr illa, 106; var þat brátt auðséð á hennar högum, at …, it could soon be seen in all her doings, that …, Ld. 22.
    3. also generally to shew signs of a thing; sýna fáleika á sér, to shew marks of displeasure, Nj. 14, Fs. 14; taka vel, illa, lítt, á e-u, to take a thing well, ill, or indifferently, id.; finna á sér, to feel in oneself; fann lítt á honum, hvárt …, it could hardly be seen in his face, whether …, Eb. 42; líkindi eru á, it is likely, Ld. 172; göra kost á e-u, to give a choice, chance of it, 178; eiga vald á e-u, to have power over …, Nj. 10.
    II. denoting encumbrance, duty, liability; er fimtardómsmál á þeim, to be subject to …, Nj. 231; the phrase, hafa e-t á hendi, or vera á hendi e-m, on one’s hands, of work or duty to be done; eindagi á fé, term, pay day, Grág. i. 140; ómagi (skylda, afvinna) á fé, of a burden or encumbrance, D. I. and Grág. in several passages.
    III. with a personal pronoun, sér, mér, honum …, denoting personal appearance, temper, character, look, or the like; vera þungr, léttr … á sér, to be heavy or light, either bodily or mentally; þungr á sér, corpulent, Sturl. i. 112; kátr ok léttr á sér, of a gay and light temper, Fms. x. 152; þat bragð hafði hann á sér, he looked as if, … the expression of his face was as though …, Ld., cp. the mod. phrase, hafa á sér svip, bragð, æði, sið, of one’s manner or personal appearance, to bear oneself as, or the like; skjótr (seinn) á fæti, speedy ( slow) of foot, Nj. 258.
    IV. as a periphrasis of the possessive pronoun connected with the limbs or parts of the body. In common Icel. such phrases as my hands, eyes, head … are hardly ever used, but höfuð, eyru, hár, nef, munnr, hendr, fætr … á mér; so ‘í’ is used of the internal parts, e. g. hjarta, bein … í mér; the eyes are regarded as inside the body, augun í honum: also without the possessive pronoun, or as a periphrasis for a genitive, brjóstið á e-m, one’s breast, Nj. 95, Edda 15; súrnar í augum, it smarts in my eyes, my eyes smart, Nj. 202; kviðinn á sér, its belly, 655 xxx. 5, Fms. vi. 350; hendr á henni, her hands, Gísl.

The pers. pron. is used only in solemn style (poetry, hymns, the Bible), and perhaps only when influenced by foreign languages, e. g. mitt hjarta hví svo hryggist þú, as a translation of ‘warumb betrübst du dich mein Herz?’ the famous hymn by Hans Sachs; instead of the popular hjartað í mér, Sl. 43, 44: hjartað mitt is only used as a term of endearment, as by a husband to his wife, parents to their child, or the like, in a metaphorical sense; the heart proper is ‘í mér,’ not ‘mitt.’
    2. of other things, and as a periphrasis of a genitive, of a part belonging to the whole, e. g. dyrr á husi = húsdyrr, at the house-doors; turn á kirkju = kirkju turn; stafn, skutr, segl, árar … á skipi, the stem, stern, sail … of a ship, Fms. ix. 135; blöð á lauk, á tré …, leaves of a leek, of a tree …, Fas. i. 469; egg á sverði = sverðs egg; stafr á bók; kjölr á bók, and in endless other instances.

    VI. with subst. numerals; á þriðja tigi manna, up to thirty, i. e. from about twenty to thirty, Ld. 194; á öðru hundraði skipa, from one to two hundred sail strong, Fms. x. 126; á níunda tigi, between eighty and ninety years of age, Eg. 764, v. above: used as prep., á hendi, on one’s hand, i. e. bound to do it, v. hönd.
    VII. in more or less adverbial phrases it may often be translated in Engl. by a participle and a- prefixed; á lopti, aloft; á floti, afloat; á lífi, alive; á verðgangi, a-begging; á brautu, away; á baki, a-back, behind, past; á milli, a-tween; á laun, alone, secretly; á launungu, id.; á móti, against; á enda, at an end, gone; á huldu, hidden; fara á hæli, to go a-heel, i. e. backwards, Fms. vii. 70;—but in many cases these phrases are transl. by the Engl. partic. with a, which is then perh. a mere prefix, not a prep., á flugi, a-flying in the air, Nj. 79; vera á gangi, a-going; á ferli, to be about; á leiki, a-playing, Fms. i. 78; á sundi, a-swimming, ii. 27; á verði, a-watching, x. 201; á hrakningi, a-wandering; á reiki, a-wavering; á skjálfi, a-shivering; á-hleri, a-listening; á tali, a-talking, Ísl. ii. 200; á hlaupi, a-running, Hkr. ii. 268; á verki, a-working; á veiðum, a-hunting; á fiski, a-fishing; á beit, grazing: and as a law term it even means in flagranti, N. G. L. i. 348.
    VIII. used absolutely without a case in reference to the air or the weather, where ‘á’ is almost redundant; þoka var á mikil, a thick fog came on, Nj. 267; niðamyrkr var á, pitch darkness came on, Eg. 210; allhvast á norðan, a very strong breeze from the north, Fms. ix. 20; þá var á norðrænt, a north wind came on, 42, Ld. 56; hvaðan sem á er, from whatever point the wind is; var á hríð veðrs, a snow storm came on, Nj. 282; görði á regn, rain came on, Fms. vi. 394, xi. 35, Ld. 156.

Sunnudaginn, Jóladaginn …, by dropping the prep. ‘á,’ Fms. viii. 397, Grág. i. 18.
    III. connected with ‘dagr’ with the definite article suffixed, ‘á’ denotes a fixed, recurring period or season, in; á daginn, during the day-time, every day in turn, Grett. 91 A.
    IV. connected with ‘evening, morning, the seasons,’ with the article; á kveldit, every evening, Ld. 14; á sumarit, every summer, Vd. 128, where the new Ed.

    Grammatical information: v.
    Meaning: `take, grasp' (see on ἀγρέω), (psothom.)
    Other forms: Aor. λαβεῖν (Il.), redupl. midd. λελα-βέσθαι (δ 388), pass. λαφθῆναι (Ion.), ληφθῆναι (Att.), λημφθῆναι (hell.); fut. λάψομαι (Ion.), λά[μ]ψεται (Alc., Hamm Grammatik 145), λαψῃ̃ 2. sg.

    Compounds: very often with prefix in diff. meanings, ἀνα-, κατα-, ἐπι-, παρα-, περι-, συν-, ὑπο-.
    Derivatives: Very many derivv., many technical words with specific meanings: A. From λαβεῖν: 1. λαβή `grip, point of application etc.' (Alc. [ λάβα], Ion. Att.), of the compp. e. g. συλλαβή `grip, syllable etc.' (A., Att.); λαβίς f. `grip, cramp, tweezers' (hell.) with λαβίδιον (Dsc., Gal.), ἀντι-, κατα-, περι-λαβεύς `handgrip of a shield, peg etc.' (H., medic.; cf. Boßhardt 81), λάβιον `grip' (Str.), ἀπολάβειον `cramp' (Ph. Bel.). 2. - λάβος in compp. as ἐργο-λάβ-ος m. `untertaker' with - έω, - ία (Att., hell.). 3. - λαβής e. g. εὑ-λαβ-ής (: εὑ λαβεῖν) `careful' with - έομαι, - εια (IA.; lit. s. θρησκεύω, also Kerényi Byz.-Neugr. Jbb. 8, 306ff.). 4. ΛhαβΕτος PN (Att. epigr.). - B. From full-grade forms ( λήψομαι, ληφθῆναι): 1. λῆμμα ( ἀνά- λαμβάνω etc.) `taking in, accept' (Att.). 2. λῆψις ( ἀνά- λαμβάνω etc.), hell. λῆμψις `capture, apprehension, attack of a disease' (Hp., Att.), ἀπό-, διά-λαμψις = ἀπό-, διά-ληψις (Mytil., Kyme a. o.). 3. - λη(μ)πτωρ, e. g. συλ-λήπ-τωρ with συλλήπτρ-ια `participant, assistant' (Att.). 4. ἀνα-, κατα-ληπ-τήρ `scoop' resp. `clamp' (hell.), ἀνα- ληπτρ-ίς f. `connection' (Gal.). 5. παρα- λή(μ)π-της `tax-collector' (hell.), προσωπο-λήπ-της `who looks after the person' (NT). 6. ληπτικός ` receptive' (Arist.), further in comp., e. g. ἐπιληπτικός ` epileptic' (: ἐπίληψις, Hp.). 7. συλ-λήβ-δην adv. `taken together' (Thgn., A.). - On λάβρος s. v.; on ἀμφι-λαφής s. λάφυρον.
    Origin: IE [Indo-European] [958] * sleh₂gʷ-? `take, grasp'
    Etymology: From Aegin. λhαβών, Att.ΛhαβΕτος and εἴληφα (and also hom. ἔ-λλαβον) we see IE. sl-; the Hom. present λάζομαι, for which λαμβάνω was an innovation (Schwyzer 699 f.; metr. uneasy? Kuiper Nasalpräs. 156) shows IE. gʷ; basis therefore IE. * slagʷ-. The aspiration in εἴληφα can be secondary (vgl. Schwyzer 772); perhaps another verb for `grasp' (s. λάφυρον) was involved; also some other formes were influenced by it. the zero grade must be secondary, *sl̥h₂- would hav got long ᾱ.

Schwentner KZ 71, 32). So no reliable IE etym. remains. I wonder whether it is a substr. word. - Improbable is connection with ἀνήνοθεν (Schwebeablaut h₂endh-: h₂nodh- is improbable).

  • 7 γαυλός

    Grammatical information: m.
    Meaning: `milk-pail, water-bucket, beehive' (Od.);
    Other forms: γαῦλος, with different accent (s. Hdn. Gr. 1, 156), a (round) freighter (Epich., s. Chantraine Étrennes Benveniste 7).
    Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
    Etymology: Connection with γωλεός and γύαλον (q. vv.) and further OHG kiol, awno. kióll `ship' is considered; same for γυρός. - The gloss γαυλοί: καὶ τὰ Φοινικικὰ πλοῖα γαῦλοι καλοῦνται H. does not prove Phoenician origin. See E. Masson Emprunts sém. 39ff. One limits the comparison now to Hebr. gullā `vase' for oil. - From here Lat. gaulus.

  • 8 δῆλος

    Grammatical information: adj.
    Meaning: `clear' (Od.: ἔκδηλος Ε 2)
    Other forms: beside δέελος `visible' (Κ 466).
    Derivatives: Denomin. δηλόω `make clear' (Ion.-Att.) with δήλωσις, δήλωμα (Att. etc.), δηλωτικός (Hp.). - Often with prefix: ἀρί-δηλος (with, through inverted writing [cf. ζα- = δα-], ἀρί-ζηλος), ἔκ-, ἔν-, ἐπί-, κατά-δηλος etc. with ἐκδηλόω etc. See Strömberg Greek Prefix Studies (Index s. vv.). δεϜαλῶσαι (BCH 1988, 283f., Mantinea IVa) with hypercorrect F (RPh 71, 1997, 156).
    Origin: IE [Indo-European] [183]? * deih₂- `shine'
    Etymology: The glosses δίαλον φανερόν and διάλας τὰς δήλας καὶ φανεράς H., dialectical for δεα-, show that δῆλος continues *δέαλος \< *dei̯h₂lo-, cognate with δέατο \< *dei̯h₂-to (s. v.). This fits also for ἔκδηλος in Ε 2 (Bechtel Lex. 98). (Diff. Schulze Q. 244 A. 2, Chantr. Form. 242.) - On δέελος s.v. On εὑδείελος (s. v.).

Also in ἐρῑνεός `wild fig' an old word for `buck' has been supposed (s. v.). - See W.-Hofmann s. aries. Cf. Specht Ursprung 156 und 221.

  • 10 ἰ̄θύς

    ἰ̄θύς
    Grammatical information: adj.
    Meaning: `straight, just', also adv. (beside rare ἰθύ, ἰθέως) `straightforward' (Il.; cf. on εὑθύς); superl. ἰθύντατα (Hom.; after ἰθύνω?, diff. Schwyzer 534).

    Derivatives: 1. ἰθύ̄ς f. `straight direction, enterprise', only in acc. ἀν' ἰθύν, πᾶσαν ἐπ' ἰθύν etc. (Hom.); for the explanation Schwyzer 463 w. n. 8, Frisk Eranos 43, 221. 2. ἰθύτης f. `id.' (Aret.). Denomin. verbs: 1. ἰθύω, aor. ἰθῦσαι, also with ἐπι-, `go straight, be eager, desire' (Il.); 2. ἰθύνω, aor. ἰθῦναι, pass. ἰθυνθῆναι, also with prefix, δι-, ἐξ-, ἐπ-, κατ-ιθύνω etc., `make straight, direct, steer, lead' (Il.; Schwyzer 733) with ἰθυντήρ `who steers, leader' (Theoc., A. R.), f. ἰθύντειρα (Orph. A. 352), adj. - τήριος `steering, leading' (S. Ichn. 73); also ἰθύντωρ (Orph.), ἰθύντης (H.) `id.'; postverbal ἴθυνα = εὔθυνα (Chios V-IVa).

    Etymology: The comparison with Skt. sādhú- `straight, just' (beside sā́dhati, sādhnoti `come to a goal') with Skt. zero grade in sídhyati `id.', ptc. siddha-, gives * s(e)Hdh-; Pok. 892. (Earlier reconstructions with a long diphtong can now be forgotten.) Here perhaps also Arm. aǰ `dexter, straight' \< *seh₂dhi̯o-, poss. *sHdhi̯o- (Lidén Armen. Stud. 75f.). Older lit. in Bq. Wrong Sommer IF 11, 208, Wood ClassPhil. 7, 324, id. Mod. langu. notes 18, 13f. From this form the Greek forms cannot be explained. A Cret. fem. εἰθεῖα confirmes a form *εἰθύς, Lamberterie (1990) 287f. Cf. εἶθαρ, εὐθύς.

  • 11 κάρχαρος

    Grammatical information: adj.
    Meaning: `biting, sharp, raw' (Alcm. 140, Lyc., Opp.),
    Other forms: with reshaped ending καρχαρέος (EM).
    Compounds: καρχαρόδων (- ους), - οντος `with sharp teeth' (Il., Hes., Ar., Arist., Thphr.; cf. Sommer Nominalkomp. 93)
    Derivatives: καρχαρίας m. `kind of shark' (Pl. Com., Sophr.; cf. Thompson Fishes s. v., Strömberg Fischnamen 45); the word was taken over in Lat. carcharus, - ias, Saint-Denis, Rev. de phil. 3e sér. 40 (1966) 388ff.
    Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
    Etymology: Onomatopoet. reduplicated formation (Schwyzer 423). One compares Skt. khára- `hard, raw, sharp' (which cannot agree with the Gr.- χ-), NPers. xār(ā) `rock, thorn', and Toch. A tsär `raw'; the last doubtful, s. Pedersen Tocharisch 242f. w. n. 1. Acc. to Leumann Hom. Wörter 156 κάρχαρος was taken from hom. καρχαρόδοντες. - An unaspirated form is κάρκαροι τραχεῖς καὶ δέσμοι H. (cf. s. v.). S. Bq, WP. 1, 355, Mayrhofer KEWA s. kharaḥ1. -Blanc thinks that the word is connected with χάραξ `pointed pole' and χαράσσω `sharpen, engrave etc.', REG 107 (1994) 686-693. Fur. 130 rejects the IE comparison (see Mayrhofer Wb. 1, 170, who points to Dravidian origin). The comparison with κάρκαροι points rather to Pre-Greek origin; Fur. refers to Urart. ḥarḥar `heap of stones, Arm. karkar̄ `slippery rock'.

  • 12 κηυα

    Grammatical information: ?
    Meaning: Delph. in θύεν.. τρικτευαν κηυαν (IG 22, 1126, 34 [bis], IVa).
    Origin: GR [a formation built with Greek elements]X [probably]
    Etymology: Expression of unclear meaning; τρικτευαν in any case to τριττο(ι)α, τρικτύα `sacrifice of three animals'. If, like these, substantivized derivation (of τρικτύς, τριττύς), κηυαν will be an adjective; perh. = *κηιϜαν, through metathesis from *κηϜ-ιαν `destined for burning' (from καίω, aor. *κῆϜ-αι)?; cf. κηώδης and κήϊα, κεῖα καθάρματα H. Not with Bechtel Dial. 2, 156 from *kēu̯usi̯ă. - Diff. Prellwitz BB 17, 166ff.) κηυα rather a verbal abstract *κηϜ-ι̯ᾰ, acc. to Schwyzer 459 w. n. 7 (s. also 349) however *κήϜ-ᾱ.
