Grammatical information: n.Derivatives: Beside it, prob. as deriv. (Schwyzer 462 A. 3), λάτρις, - ιος m. f. `hired servant, handmaid' (Thgn., S., E.); λάτριος `belonging to a hired servant or to the payment etc.' (Pi., Man.); λατρεύω, El. - είω `serve (for hire), serve a god (with prayer a. sacrifice)' (Sol., Olympia VIa, trag., Isoc., X.) with λατρεία (trag., Pl., LXX, Ep. Rom. u. a.), λατρεύματα pl. (S., E.) `service, s. of gods', λατρευ-τός (LXX), - τικός (Ptol.) `belonging to a servant, servile'; λατρεύς `servant' (Lyc.; from λατρεύω or λάτρον, Boßhardt 66), λατρώδης `servile' (Vett. Val.).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: As (north) west Greek word λάτρον etc. was not only foreign to the Aeolians and Ionians, but orig. also in Athens (v. Wilamowitz Eur. Her. 389, Bechtel Dial. 1, 207, E. Kretschmer Glotta 17, 79). There is no convincing IE connection. Usually λά-τρον (on the formation Chantraine Form. 331) is considered as the zero grade parallel of some words occurring in Germ., Balt.-Slav., Indo-Iran., which all go back on a full grade IE * lē(i)-'provide, possession' (WP. 2, 394, Pok. 665). This is, however, impossible as a root *lē- = * leh₁- would not give λα- in Greek. Skt. rātí-, Av. rāiti- `prepared to give', f. `liberality, gift'; the Indo-Ir. words are uncertain because of the r-; the whole combination rests on a weak foundation. So we can be rather sure that the word is of Pre-Greek origin. - From hell. *λάτρων Lat. latrō `hired soldier' (Leumann Sprache 1, 207).Page in Frisk: 2,89-90Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > λάτρον
