Other forms: Later πυρακτόομαι, -όω be singed, carbonized (D. S., Str., Plu.).

Etymology: Tradit. taken as a comp. of πῦρ and ἄγειν with the meaning turn about, around in the fire (e.g. Bechtel Lex. s.v.), semant. and morpholog. both unsatisactory, as ἄγειν cannot mean turn around and a mediating *πύρακτος turning around in fire (Bechtel) would be without example (rather *πυρ-άκ-της, which however could hardly have meant sthing else but fire-driver ). -- Without doubt expressive enlargement in -(α)κτέω from πυρ-άζω (EM 697, 16; Stolz WienStud. 25, 234 w. n. 1 a. lit.), *-ασσω v.t. like ὑλακτέω from ὑλάω (beside ὑλαγμός a.o.), ἀλυκτέω from ἀλύω, ἀλύσσω; on the last mentioned cases Frisk Eranos 50, 8 ff. Cf. πυρακ-τόομαι after the many intransitives in -όομαι with factitive -όω.
