The word has been connected with Hitt. <b class="b2">mahla-</b>, but this appeared to have a diff. meaning (`grape, vine, twig of a vine'); Cuny, REA 26(1924)364f; corrected by Sturtevant CGr.1 292, Kronasser VLFL (1956) 88, Szemerényi, Phonetica 17(1967)47; hardly to [[ἀμάμαξυς]], Fur. 212.<br />2<br />Grammatical information: n., mostly pl. <b class="b3">-α</b><br />Meaning: [[small cattle]], [[sheep and goats]] (Il.); [[μηλάτων]] Lyc. 106 after [[προβάτων]].<br />Other forms: (also Dor.).<br />Compounds: Often as 1. member, e.g. <b class="b3">μηλο-βότης</b>, Dor. <b class="b3">-τας</b> [[shepherd]] (Pi., E.), also <b class="b3">-βοτήρ</b> (Σ 529, h.

(Fraenkel Nom. ag. 2, 129, Schwyzer 500), [[μηλωτή]] f. [[sheepskin]] (Philem. Com., hell.; like [[κηρωτή]] a.o.) with [[Μηλώσιος]] surn. of Zeus (Corc., Naxos), prop. "who is wrapped in a sheepskin" (Nilsson Gr. Rel. 1, 395f.).<br />Origin: XX [etym. unknown]<br />Etymology: Old word for [[small cattle]], which is well attested in Celtic, e.g. OIr. [[mil]] n. [[small animal]], and is sporadically found also in Westgerm., e.g. in OLFranc. [[māla]] [[cow]], Dutch [[maal]] [[young cow]] (here also the old name of the Harz, <b class="b3">Μηλί-βοκον ὄρος</b>?). -- Against these words, which all can go back on IE <b class="b2">*mēlo-</b>, stands with <b class="b2">a-</b>vowel Arm. [[mal]] [[sheep]], also SmRuss. [[mal]]' f. [[small cattle]], [[young sheep]], Russ. (Crimea) <b class="b2">malíč</b> <b class="b2">kind of Crimea-sheep</b>. It eems obvious to sonnect these words with the general Slav. adj. for [[small]], e.g. OCS [[malъ]], Russ. <b class="b2">mályj</b>. A further step leads to the Germ. word for [[small]], [[narrow]] in Goth. [[smals]] etc., which is often used of small cattle, e.g. OWNo. [[smale]] m. [[small animal]], OHG [[smalaz fihu]] [[Schmal-vieh]], [[small cattle]]. If we posit IE *(<b class="b2">s)mēl-</b>, (<b class="b2">s)mōl-</b> (OCS [[malь]] etc.), (<b class="b2">s)mǝl-</b> (Arm. [[mal]], Goth. [[smals]] etc.)[this means <b class="b2">*smHlo-</b>?], it would seem possible, to bring all words mentioned together. [For Arm. [[mal]] Ačaryan HAB III2224 proposes a loan from Arabic.] All this does not lead to a probable solution. -- Fick 1, 519, however, thinks for the <b class="b3">μῆλον-</b>group of <b class="b2">*mē-</b> [[bleat]] (s. [[μηκάομαι]]). -- Cf. WP. 2, 296f (with open doubt), Pok. 724, W.-Hofmann s. 3. [[malus]], Vasmer s. <b class="b2">mályj</b>. | ||
