Grammatical information: f.Meaning: `girl' (Com.), late also m. `boy' (Aret., Hld.).Compounds: φιλο-μεῖραξ m. f. `loving boys' (Ath., Paus.).Derivatives: Diminut.: 1. μειράκιον n. `youth, younger man' (Hp., Att.) with μειρακι-ώδης `youthful' (Pl., Arist.), - όομαι `become adolescent' (X., Ph., Ael.), - εύομαι `id., behave as a youth' (Arr., Plu., Luc.), also μειρακ-εύομαι (Alciphr. 2, 2). 2. μειρακίσκος m., also -η f. `boy, girl' (Att.; Chantraine Form. 409). 3. μειρακύλλιον `id.' (Com.; cf. Leumann Glotta 32, 215 a. 225 = Kl. Schr. 242 u. 250).Origin: IE [Indo-European] [738] *meri̯o- `young (girl or man)'Etymology: On the fem. gender cf. δέλφαξ, πόρταξ, σκύλαξ (also m.). We must start from a noun, perh. *μεῖρος (cf. λίθαξ: λίθος a. o.), which agrees with Skt. márya- m. `youth, lover', Av. mairya- (meaning unclear); and, with thematic k-suffix (independent of μεῖραξ pace Wackernagel-Debrunner II: 2, 540, Chantraine Études 160 m. A.1?), marya-ká- `small man'. The diminutive derivv. in Greek ousted the basic word. A fem. *μεῖρα (like στεῖρα) may be also considered. -- As remote cognates are adduced Lith. mergà `girl' and, with diff. vowel, Alb. shemërë f. `by-wife' (from *sm̥-merī), Lith. martì f. `bride, young woman' (cf. Βριτό-μαρτις? s. v.); further still the unclear Lat. marītus `with wife, spouse', s. W.-Hofmann s. v. Further details also in WP. 2, 281, Pok. 738f.; Fraenkel Wb. s. martì and mergà.

Ex: In the attempt to match the above criteria, there are two fundamentally distinct avenues to the construction of the schedules of a classification scheme.Ex: It is under the chosen form of heading that the catalogue entry for a particular document is filed and hence located.Ex: In various guises, the basic concepts have found application in the design of a number of special classification schemes.Ex: The easiest means of illustrating some of the foregoing points is to introduce in outline some special classification schemes.Ex: They are likely to influence the future function of DC, and the way in which the scheme will evolve, but since there will be a continuing need for shelf arrangement, DC will remain necessary.Ex: City planning is a body of techniques and theories for co-ordinative decision-making which tries to distribute the community's resources in a manner which will best achieve the community's specific goals, whatever they may be = El urbanismo es un conjunto de técnicas y teorías para la toma coordinada de decisiones que intenta distribuir los recursos de la comunidad de tal forma que se consigan mejor los objetivos específicos de ésta, sean cuales sean.Ex: It was on the tip of his tongue to say: 'Must you speak to me in this uncivilized fashion?'
