Compounds: sometimes with prefix, e.g. ἐπι-, ἀπο-, συγ-κυέομαι, -κυίσκομαι (-ίσκω), ὑπο-κυσαμένη (Il.).
Derivatives: Verbal nouns: κύημα foetus, embryo (IA.), -ησις conception, pregnancy, embryo (Pl., Arist., Thphr.), κύος n. = κύημα (Ar. Fr. 609, inscr. Keos) with κυόεις (Kos, IIIa); ἀπο-κυη-τικός capable of giving birth (Astrol.), κυητήριος promoting pregnancy (Hp.), κυήτωρ begetter (Cyran.; of a bird); κυηρόν ἔγκυον, ἁπαλόν, βλαστόν H.

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [592] *ḱuh₂- swell
Etymology: On κῦμα (ἐγ-κύμων), κύριος (κῦρος) s. vv. With κυέω can be equated Skt. śváyati be or become great, strong, powerful, get strong, increase: IE. *ḱuh₂-éi̯e-(ti), (Schulze KZ 27, 605 = Kl. Schr. 363); h₂ is shown by κύαρ. Beside this secondary present stands in very old times the primary middle aorist κύσασθαι (Skt. has the themat. root-aor. á-śv-a-t [would be Gr. *ἔ-κυ-ε; to this as innovation κύω?]). - From the many forms, esp. petrified and isolated verbal nouns, we mention the pres. ptc. Av. si-sp-i-mna-'rising up' (of a river-wave; cf. κῦμα), Welsh cyw m. young animal (IE. *ḱu₂o- m.; cf. ἔγ-κυος, κυο-φορέω, κύος n.), Lat. inciēns pregnant (loan from ἔγκυος, s. Ernout-Meillet; diff. W.-Hofmann); three more forms s. κύριος (where also on the ablaut); [not κύαμος, πᾶς, πέπαμαι]. On suppoed connection to words for hollow, empty s. κύαρ. - Pok. 592ff., W.-Hofmann s. inciēns and cavus . - Hitt. šuwa- swell (?), Götze Lang. 30, 404, must remain separate because of the anlaut.

Middle Liddell


1. like κύω, to bear in the womb, to be pregnant with a child, Lat. gestare, Il., Plat.
2. absol. to be pregnant, be with child, Hdt.
