French (Bailly abrégé)

ου (ὁ) :
point du jour, aurore : ὄρθρος βαθύς AR la première aurore, le jour naissant, le petit jour ; περὶ ὄρθρον THC, κατ’ ὄρθρον AR, πρὸς ὄρθρον AR, τὸ πρὸς ὄρθρον XÉN au point du jour ; ὄρθρου, τὸν ὄρθρον HDT m. sign. ; ἅμα ὄρθρῳ HDT avec le jour naissant.
Étymologie: R. Ὀρ, se lever ; v. ὄρνυμι.

English (Strong)

from the same as ὄρος; dawn (as sun-rise, rising of light); by extension, morn: early in the morning.

English (Thayer)

ὄρθρου, ὁ (from ὈΡΩ, ὄρνυμι to stir up, rouse; cf. Latin orior, ortus), from Hesiod down; the Sept. for שַׁחַר dawn, and several times for בֹּקֶר; daybreak, dawn: ὄρθρου βαθέος or βαθέως (see βαθέως and βαθύς (on the genitive cf. Winer's Grammar, § 30,11; Buttmann, § 132,26)), at early dawn, ὄρθρου, at daybreak, at dawn, early in the morning, Hesiod, Works, 575; the Sept. ὑπό τόν ὄρθρον, Dio Cassius, 76,17).

Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: m.
Meaning: time before daybreak, the time of cock-crow, first dawn, later the beginning day, morning (h.Merc. 98, Hes. Op. 577; on the meaning Wackernagel Unt. 193).
Compounds: Some compp., e.g. ὀρθρο-βόας m. "morning-caller", denom. of the cock (AP; cf. on ἠϊ-κανός), τὸ περί-ορθρον dawn (Th., Hdn.).
Derivatives: 1. Adj. ὄρθρ-ιος belonging to ὄ., happening at ὄ. (h. Merc. 143), Όρθρία f. name of a goddess (Schwenn RhM 86, 298); -ινός id. (Arat., LXX, AP, cf. ἑωθ-ινός a.o.), -ίδιος id. (AP: ἀΐδιος a.o.); comp. forms ὀρθριαί-τερος, -τατος (Hdn.), adv. also ὀρθρί-τερον (pap.) after πρωΐ-, ὀψί-τερον (Schwyzer 534, Radermacher Festschr. Kretschmer 154ff.). 2. Verbs: a) ὀρθρ-εύω, -ομαι to be sleepless, awake in the early morning (E., Theoc.) with the backformation Ὄρθρος m. name of a mythical dog (Hes. Th. 309; Kretschmer Glotta 13, 270), with ἐπ- also to be up early (D. Chr., Luc.); b) -ίζω id. (LXX, Ev. Luc.) with (ἑπ-)ορθρισμός m. (Aq, Plu.).
Origin: IE [Indo-European]X [probably] [cf. 1167]
Etymology: Already the meaning time before daybreak, first light of the morning is not favourable to the old connection to Lat. (sol) oriens, ortus m. rise (of a star); if Ϝορθ-αγορίσκος stands for *Ϝορθρ- (cf. s.v.), this explanation is definitely impossible. Then ὄρθρος can better be connected with ὀρθός a. cogn., with which esp. the Slavic cognates, e.g. OCS ranъ ὄρθριος Russ. ráno early are remarkable. The supposed suffixdiff. in ranъ from *u̯rōdh-no- and ὄρθ-ρος has been explained from an old interchange n : r [which does not seem very probable]. Thus ὄρθρος would be prop. "the growing (of the daylight)" after the dark of midnight, what would agree better with the orig. use of ὄρθρος. -- Lit. s. on ὀρθός (after J.

Frisk Etymology German

ὄρθρος: {órthros}
Grammar: m.
Meaning: Zeit vor Tagesanbruch, die Zeit des Hahnenschreis, erste Morgendämmerung, später der beginnende Tag, Morgen (seit h.Merc. 98, Hes. Op. 577; zur Bed. Wackernagel Unt. 193).
Composita : Vereinzelte Kompp., z.B. ὀρθροβόας m. "Dämmerungsrufer", Ben. des Hahns (AP u.a.; vgl. zu ἠϊκανός), τὸ περίορθρον Morgendämmerung (Th., Hdn.).
Derivative: Davon 1. die Adj. ὄρθριος ‘zum ὄ. gehörig, am ὄ. eintreffend’ (seit h. Merc. 143), Ὀρθρία f. N. einer Göttin (Schwenn RhM 86, 298); -ινός ib. (Arat., LXX, AP, vgl. ἑωθινός u.a.), -ίδιος ib. (AP: ἀΐδιος u.a.); Steigerungsformen ὀρθριαίτερος, τατος (Hdn.), Adv. auch ὀρθρίτερον (Pap.) nach πρωΐ-, ὀψίτερον (Schwyzer 534, Radermacher Festschr. Kretschmer 154ff.). 2. Verha: a) ὀρθρεύω, -ομαι in der Morgenfrühe schlaflos sein, wach sein (E., Theok.) mit der Rückbildung Ὄρθρος m. N. eines mythischen Hundes (Hes. Th. 309; Kretschmer Glotta 13, 270), mit ἐπ- auch früh aufsein (D. Chr., Luk. u.a.); b) -ίζω ib. (LXX, Ev. Luk.) mit (ἑπ-)ορθρισμός m. (Aq, Plu.).
Etymology : Schon die Bed. Zeit vor Tagesanbruch, erste Morgendämmerung ist der älteren Anknüpfung an lat. (sol) oriens, ortus m. ‘Aufgang (eines Gestirns)’ nicht ganz günstig; wenn ϝορθαγορίσκος für *ϝορθρ- steht (vgl. s.v.), fällt diese Erklärung endgültig aus. Dann reiht sich ὄρθρος besser an ὀρθός u. Verw., wobei insbes. die slavischen Vertreter, z.B. aksl. ranъ ὄρθριος russ. ráno früh zu bemerken sind. Der anzunehmende Suffixwechsel in ranъ aus *u̯rōdh-no- und ὄρθρος kann dabei auf einen alten Stammwechsel n : r zurückgehen. Somit wäre ὄρθρος eig. "das Heranwachsen (des Tageslichts)" nach dem Mitternachtsdunkel, was unzweifelhaft dem urspr. Gebrauch von ὄρθρος besser gerecht wird. — Lit. s. zu ὀρθός (nach J.
