French (Bailly abrégé)

οῦ (ὁ) :
faim ; famine, inanition.
Étymologie: DELG cf. λοιμός.

English (Slater)

λῑμός
   1 famine γαστρὶ δὲ πᾶς τις ἀμύνων λιμὸν αἰανῆ τέταται (I. 1.49) Πανελλάδος, ἅν τε Δελφῶν ἔθνος εὔξατο λιμοῦ θ[ (Pae. 6.64)

English (Strong)

probably from λείπω (through the idea of destitution); a scarcity of food: dearth, famine, hunger.

English (Thayer)

λιμοῦ, ὁ (and ἡ in Doric and later writings; so L T Tr WH in Song of Solomon , too, in Lob. ad Phryn., p. 188; (Liddell and Scott, under the word at the beginning; WH s Appendix, p. 157a); Buttmann, 12 (11); Winer s Grammar, 63 (62) (cf. 36), and 526 (490)); the Sept. very often for רָעָב; hunger: ἐν λιμῷ καί δίψει, Xenophon, mem. 1,4, 13; equivalent to scarcity of harvest, famine: Buttmann, 81 (71)); λιμοί, famines in divers lands, λιμοί καί λοιμοί, L T Tr text WH omit καί λοιμοί); Theophilus ad Autol. 2,9; the two are joined in the singular in Hesiod, Works, 226; Herodotus 7,171; Philo, vit. Moys. i. § 19; Plutarch, de Isa. et Osir. 47.

Greek Monolingual

ο (AM λιμός, ὁ, Α και λιμός, ή)
μεγάλη και παρατεταμένη έλλειψη ειδών διατροφής που παρουσιάζει ευρεία γεωγραφική εξάπλωση και προκαλεί αύξηση της θνησιμότητας λόγω πείνας («λιμῷ δ' οἴκτιστον θανέειν», Ομ. Οδ.)

Greek Monotonic

λῑμός: -οῦ, ὁ και ἡ, πείνα, έλλειψη τροφής, σε Όμηρ., κ.λπ.· παροιμ., ἀπολεῖτε λιμῷ Μηλίῳ, σχετικά με την πολιορκία της Μήλου, σε Αριστοφ.· μεταφ., λέγεται για το μυαλό, σε Ευρ.

Russian (Dvoretsky)

λῑμός: ὁ, реже ἡ, тж. pl. голод (δίψα τε καὶ λ. Hom.; λ. ὁμοῦ καὶ λοιμός Hes.; λιμῷ θανέειν Hom., ἀποθανεῖν Plat. и ἀπολλύναι NT): Μήλιος λ. Arph. Мелосский голод, т. е. мучительнейший (голод на острове Мелос во время осады его афинянами в 416 г. до н. э.).

Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: m., also f. (Schwyzer-Debrunner 37 w. n. 3, Solmsen Wortforsch. 109)
Meaning: hunger, famine (Il.).
Compounds: Compp., e.g. λιμ-αγχ-έομαι be weakened by hunger (Hp.) from *λίμ-αγχ-ος (: ἄγχω; cf. Schwyzer 726); on βού-λιμος s. on βουλιμία; on πούλιμος strong hunger (Boeot.) Schulze K.Z. 33, 243 f. = Kl. Schr. 399 f. -
Derivatives: λιμ-ώδης hungry (Hp.), -ηρός hungry, connected with hunger (Theoc., AP ), -αλέος = ῥυσός, λεπτός' (H.; after αὑαλέος a. o.). Verbs: λιμαίνω, λιμῆναι be hungry (Hdt.), λιμώττω, -ώσσω id. (Str., J.) with λίμωξις (late); on NGr. λιμάζω, -άσσω cf. Georgacas Glotta 36, 168; on the group id. Ἀφιέρωμα Τριανταφυλλίδη 513ff.
Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
Etymology: No agreement outside Greek (Osc. limu famem is a loan.) A primary formation compared with λι-μός is suspected in λοι-μός pest (s.v.) in spite of the long ι; on further hypothetical connections, e.g. with Lith. líesas meagre, leĩnas thin, weak, pliant, Goth. af-linnan ἀποχωρεῖν', OHG bi-linnan give way, stop, leave off s. WP. 2, 387f., Pok. 661 f., Fraenkel Wb. s. láibas, also W.-Hofmann s. lētum. Diff. Wackernagel KZ 30, 295 ( = Kl. Schr. 1, 658): from *λιπ-μός to λίψ ἐπιθυμία, λίπτω (s. v.); s. also λιρός. .
