Derivatives: Dimin. στεάτ-ιον n. (Alex., Paul. Aeg.), - ώδης `tallowy' (Hp., Arist. a. o.), - ινος `of tallow, of dough' (Aesop.), - ωμα n. `tallow formation, fat-tumour' with - ωμάτιον n.

6 στία

στία

Grammatical information: f. (A. R. 2, 1172),

Meaning: `small stone, pebble' (A. R. 2, 1172).

Other forms: στῖον n. (Hp. ap. Gal. 19, 140).

Compounds: πολύ-στῑος `rich of pebbles' (Call., Nic.).

Derivatives: στιώδης `pebblish, stone-hard' (Gal.), στιάζει λίθοις βάλλει H.

Origin: XX [etym. unknown]

Etymology: Without direct agreement outside Greek. Formally agrees with this Skt. stíyāḥ pl. either `standing waters', the tertium comparationis would be `curdled, fest, stiff' in Skt. sty-āna- (pres. styāyate). Diff. Johansson BB 18, 50 n. 1 (agreeing Kretschmer KZ 34, 8): from * stī-s-; not better(?). As full grade to this is counted στέαρ `(standing) fatt' from *στῆι-αρ, PGr. *στᾱι̯-αρ; so we can also connect the Germ. word for `stone', Goth. stains m. etc. (PGm. * stai-na- \< * steh₂ino-?) as well as a Slav. word for `stone, (rock)wall' in OCS stěna, Russ. stená f. etc. But how to derive the Greek word? WP. 2, 610 f., Pok. 1010f., Vasmer s. v. with further forms a. rich lit. S. also on στίλη and στέαρ.
