Grammatical information: v.Etymology: Mostly connected with λεία, Dor. λᾱίᾱ (\< *λᾱϜ-ίᾱ) `booty', for which an IE root *lāu̯- `seize, enjoy' is assumed, found in isolated nouns. λᾱϜ- requires * leh₂u-. Lat. lucrum (\< * lu-tlo-m) `gain' could then be * lh₂u-tlom (Schrijver 1991, 240), Germ., Goth. laun n. `reward' could be * leh₂u-no-, but OCS lovъ `catch, chase', loviti `catch, chase' would require * lh₂eu-, which is an improbable formation. (Not to Skt. lotra-, lota- `booty' (lex.): from MInd. loptra-, Wackernagel Ai. Gramm. 1, 91). But - λαϜ could be *lh₂u̯-, but not *leh₂u̯- (\> *λᾱϜ)-), and in both cases the F would disappear; * leh₂u-s- would give *λαυσ-. Not to λᾱρός.

8 συλάω
Grammatical information: v.Meaning: `to strip off (the armour), to take away, to rob, to plunder, to seize'(Hom., IA.).Other forms: (El. opt. συλαίη), aor. συλῆσαι etc., also w. ἀπο- a.o. (Il.), ep. pres. also - εύω (cf. Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 368; not from συλεύς; s.bel.), - έω (Delph., Theoc. a.o.; also Pi.? s. Forssman Unt. 157f.)Compounds: Compound: θεο-σύλης m. = θεῶν συλήτωρ (Alc. a.o.; Peek Phil. 100, 23), ἱερό-συλος m. `temple-robber' with - έω, - ία (Att.). Compp. συλ-αγωγέω `to carry away as booty' (Ep. Col. a.o.), ἄ-συλος `one who cannot be distrained, invulnerable, safe', τὸ ἄ. `fenced territory, refuge', with ἀσυλ-ία f. `safety from distraint, invulnerability' a.o. (Parm., A., E., Pl., inscr. etc.).Derivatives: συλ-ήτωρ m. `plunderer' (A., Nonn.), f. - ήτειρα (E. in lyr.; Fraenkel Nom. ag. 2, 22f.), - ησις f. `plunder' (S., Pl. a.o.), - ητικός `related to plunder' (hell. inscr.), - ητής (gloss.). -- Besides σῦλα n., σῦλαι f. pl., rarely - ον, -η sg., `captured shipload, booty' (Samos VIa, Locr. Va, Str.), Att. `right of seizure of a ship or its cargo, right of distraint' (D., Arist.). From σῦλα or συλάω (- έω, - εύω) συλεύς m. `plunderer' (GDI 2516, Delph. IIIa; cf. ad loc.), also as mythical PN (Bosshardt 123). On Συλο- and - συλος in PN also Masson Beitr. z. Namenforsch. 16, 166 ff.Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: Against the most obvious and hard to reject assumption, that συλάω is derived from σῦλα, σῦλαι, speaks a little the later and more rare attestation of the nouns. In any case the Att. meaning `right of seizure' must be secondary and cannot be separated from ἄ-συλος. Whether ἄσυλος from συλάω (beside ἀ-σύλητος [E. a.o.] like ἄτιμος: ἀτίμητος) = `who may not be taken away or be robbed', i.e. `unviolable', to which σῦλα, - αι `right of seizure'? -- No certain etymology. The similarity between σῦλα, - άω and σκῦλα is long since observed (Curtius 169, Buttmann Lexil. 2, 264) and provoked diff. attempts at explanation: variation σκ-: ξ-: σ- (Schwyzer 329, Sánchez Ruipérez Emer. 15, 67 f.); σκῦλον secondary after σκῦτος (Pisani Sprache 5, 143 ff.). After Pisani σῦλα comes with Lat. spolia from Lydian; cf. Σάρδεις: OPers. Sparda-, also Arm. sunk: σπόγγος. On ἐσσύλλα ἀφῄρει κτλ. H. (adduced by P. with earlier investigators) one cannot trust (alphabet. wrong); ὑλᾶται ἐστερήθη, ἀπέθανεν H.

17 ἀγαθός
Grammatical information: adj.Meaning: `good' (Il.).Other forms: ἀκαθόν· ἀγαθόν H.; χάσιος· χρηστός H. Dor. χάϊος `noble, good' (ᾱ)Origin: IE [Indo-European]X [probably], LW [loanword]X[probably] [413]Etymology: Uncertain. On the one hand, one compares Germ. forms, Goth. goÞs, NHG gut, MLG gaden `fit' etc., further OCS godьnъ `pleasant', goditi `be pleasant', Russ. gódnyj `useful'. (Not with Skt. gadh- `to take, seize', gádhyā- `booty' which would have given *( ἀ)καθος). Crim. Goth. gadeltha `pulchrum'. The words must have a\/ā (long ō is morphologically excluded; Slavic cannot have h₂). Considered as a European substratum word by Beekes KZ 109 (1996). - Recently the word is analysed as *mǵh₂-dh₁-os `made great' (Panagl FS Strunk (1995)), which is semantically not convincing; or `whose deeds are great' Ruijgh 1991, FS Bartoněk, which is also semantically unconvincing. - If the variants are reliable, it could be Pre-Greek.Page in Frisk: 1,5-6Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ἀγαθός
