Greek Monolingual

μηκάς -άδος, ἡ (Α)

2. ως ουσ. η αίγα («θῡσαι μὲν τῇ Πανδήμῳ δεήσει λευκὴν μηκάδα», Λουκιαν.).
[ΕΤΥΜΟΛ. Ο τ. μηκάς (< μηκ-άδ-ς) έχει σχηματιστεί από το ρηματ. θέμα του μηκάζω, πιθ. αναλογικά με ονόματα ζώων σε -άς (πρβλ. δορκ-άς, κεμ-άς)].

Greek Monotonic

μηκάς: -άδος, ἡ, αυτή που βελάζει, λέγεται για θηλυκές κατσίκες, σε Όμηρ.· μεταγεν., μηκάδες ἄρνες = βληχάδες, σε Ευρ.
