|ftr='''μέλαθρον''': {mélathron}<br />'''Forms''': Auch [[μελάθρα]] f. (Delos IV^a).<br />'''Grammar''': n.<br />'''Meaning''': [[Dachgewölbe]], [[Dachgebälke]], [[Dach]], auch (oft im Plur.) [[Wohnung]], [[Haus]] (ep. poet. seit Il., auch Inschr. [Delos III^a, LXX, Pap.).<br />'''Composita''': Als Hinterglied z.B. in [[ὑψιμέλαθρος]] ‘mit hohen- Dachgebälke’ (''h''. ''Merc''.).<br />'''Derivative''': Davon μελαθρόομαι [[mit Dachbalken versehen sein]] (LXX).<br />'''Etymology''': Etymologisch dunkel. Nach den Alten "ἀπὸ [[τοῦ]] μελαίνεσθαι ὑπὸ [[τοῦ]] καπνοῦ" (''EM'' 576, 16). Wenn überhaupt Erbwort (vgl. Schwyzer 533, Chantraine Form. 374), vielleicht nur im Ablaut von [[βλωθρός]] [[hochgewachsen]] (aus *μλ-; s. d.) verschieden. Auffallend ist die Ähnlichkeit mit [[κμέλεθρον]] [[Stubendecke]], [[Balken]] (s.d.); Vermutungen darüber bei Güntert Reimwortbildungen 144f. und Pisani KZ 71, 125f.
