English (LSJ)

ῑθος, ἡ,

   A cord, string, rope, Od.10.23, D.S.3.21 (v.l. μέρμινθα): dat. pl. μερμίθαις from μέρμῑθα, Agatharch.47; μερμῑθος, ὁ, Hsch., Zonar. (Cf. μήρινθος.)

German (Pape)

[Seite 135] ιθος, ἡ, Schnur, Faden, κατέδει μέρμιθι φαεινῇ ἀργυρέῃ, Od. 10, 23; D. Sic. 3, 21, v. l. μέρμινθα, vgl. μήρινθος. Schon von den Alten von εἴρειν abgeleitet, mit vorgeschlagenem μ.

Greek (Liddell-Scott)

μέρμῑς: -ῑθος, ἡ, σπαρτίον, λεπτὸν σχοινίον, «σπάγγος», Ὀδ. Κ. 23· - δοτ. μερμίθαις ἐξ ὀνομαστ. μέρμιθα, Ἀγαθαρχ. ἐν Φωτ. Βιβλιοθ. 451. 36· μέρμιθος, ὁ, Ἡσύχ. ἐν λέξ. μέρμιθα, Ζωναρ. 1345. (Σχετίζεται πρὸς τὸ μήρινθος· ἡ ῥίζα εἶναι ἀμφίβολος, Κουρτ. Gr. Et. σ. 543).

French (Bailly abrégé)

ιθος (ἡ) :
fil, cordon.
Étymologie: DELG : ?

Greek Monolingual

μέρμις, -ιθος, ἡ (Α)
βλ. μέρμιθα.

Greek Monotonic

μέρμῑς: -ῑθος, ἡ, χορδή, σπάγγος, σκοινί, σε Ομήρ. Οδ. (άγν. προέλ.).

Russian (Dvoretsky)

μέρμῑς: ῑθος ἡ нить, веревка, шнур Hom., Diod.

Frisk Etymological English

-ιθος
Grammatical information: f.
Meaning: band, string (κ 23, D. S. 3, 21), dat. pl. -θαις (Agatharch. 47); acc. sg. -θον (H.), nom. -θος (Zonar.).
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: Formation like ἕλμις (μέρμινθα v. l. D. S. l. c. like ἕλμινθος etc.), ὄρνις γέλγις a. o. (Schwyzer 510, Chantraine 366). Further analysis unknown; a suffixal -μι- (with θ-enlargement) is possible; broken reduplication may be considered. A primary verb mer- twist, bind (WP. 2, 272 a. Pok. 733) is nowhere attested; cognates have been supposed in μηρύω as well as in βρόχος and μάραθ(ρ)ον (s. vv.), both without further confirmation. For foreign (Pre-Greek) origin Chantraine l.c., Deroy Glotta 35, 191ff. Fur. 289 compares μήρινθος, σμήρινθος string, thread and further σμῆριγξ hair, σμήριγγες πλεκταί, σειραί, βόστρυχοι H.

Middle Liddell


a cord, string, rope, Od. [deriv. uncertain]

Frisk Etymology German

μέρμις: -ιθος
{mérmis}
Forms: , Dat. pl. μερμίθαις (Agatharch. 47); Akk. sg. -θον (H.), Nom. -θος (Zonar.).
Grammar: f.
Meaning: Band, Schnur (κ 23, D. S. 3, 21)
Etymology : Bildung wie ἕλμις (μέρμινθα v. l. D. S. l. c. wie ἕλμινθος usw.), ὄρνις γέλγις u. a. (Schwyzer 510, Chantraine 366). Weitere Analyse unsicher; ein suffixales -μι- (mit θ-Erweiterung) ist möglich; gebrochene Reduplikation kommt auch in Betracht. Ein primäres Verb mer- fiechten, binden (WP. 2, 272 u. Pok. 733) ist nirgends belegt; Ausläufer davon werden sowohl in μηρύω wie in βρόχος und μάραθ(ρ)ον (s. dd.) vermutet. Für fremde (vorgr.) Herkunft Chantraine a.a.O., v. Windekens Le Pélasgique 121 f., Deroy Glotta 35, 191ff.
