Grammatical information: n.
Meaning: apple (Il.), also (with diff. determining attribute) of other stone-fruits (Hp., Dsc.), often metaph.: (seed-)capsule of a rose (Thpr.), in plur. breasts, cheeks, tonsils, apple-like beaker (Ar., Theoc., medic., pap., inscr.).
Other forms: Dor. Aeol. μᾶλον.
Compounds: As 1. member e.g. in μῆλ-οψ applecoloured = yellow (η 104), μαλο-πάραυος with apple-like cheekes (Theoc.); μηλ-άπιον n. name of a fruit (medic., Plin.).). As 2. member in determinatives, e.g. γλυκύ-μαλον, -μηλον sweet-apple (Sapph. [?; Risch IF 59, 10 A. 2], Call.), μελί-μηλον summer-apple, Pyrus praecox (Dsc.), also applemead (medic.) for μηλό-μελι (Dsc.; Strömberg Wortstudien 7); cf. κοκκύ-μηλον; on ἐπιμηλίς s. v.
Derivatives: A. Subst. 1. μηλέη, -α appletree (Od.); 2. μηλίς, μαλίς f. = μηλέα (Ibyc., Theoc.), yellow pigment (Plu.), name of a distemper of asses, glanders?

Adj. 7. μήλινος, μάλινος made of apples, applecoloured (Sapph., Thphr.); 8. μήλειος belonging to the apple (Nic., A. R.); 9. μηλώδης applelike (Gal.). -- C. Verb. 10. μηλίζω resemble an apple (in colour) (medic.). -- Here also the island name Μῆλος ("apple-island")?; s. Heubeck Glotta 25, 271.
Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
Etymology: Mediterranean word. -- From Greek Lat. mālum, mēlum, with mālinus applecoloured, mēlinus of quince-apples; s. W.-Hofmann s. 1. mālus. The word has been connected with Hitt. mahla-, 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.

Grammatical information: n., mostly pl. -α
Meaning: small cattle, sheep and goats (Il.); μηλάτων Lyc. 106 after προβάτων.
Other forms: (also Dor.).
Compounds: Often as 1. member, e.g. μηλο-βότης, Dor. -τας shepherd (Pi., E.), also -βοτήρ (Σ 529, h. Merc. 286) in -βοτῆρας at verse-end, after the simplex (Fraenkel Nom. ag. 1, 65, Chantraine Form. 323, Risch $13d, Shipp Studies 66); μηλάταν τὸν ποιμένα. Βοιωτοί H., haplological for μηλ-ηλάταν or for μηλόταν after βοηλάταν (Bechtel Gött. Nachr. 1919, 345, Dial. 1,307); on μηλ-ολόνθη s. v. Rarely as 2. member, only in some bahuvrihis (diff. -μηλον apple, s. v.), e.g. πολύ-μηλος with many sheep (Il.); also in PN, e.g. Boeot. Πισί-μειλος.
Derivatives: μήλειος belonging to the small cattle (Ion., E.), μηλόται ποιμένες 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.).
Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
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, Μηλί-βοκον ὄρος?). -- Against these words, which all can go back on IE *mēlo-, stands with a-vowel Arm. mal sheep, also SmRuss. mal' f. small cattle, young sheep, Russ. (Crimea) malíč kind of Crimea-sheep. It eems obvious to sonnect these words with the general Slav. adj. for small, e.g. OCS malъ, Russ. mályj. 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 *(s)mēl-, (s)mōl- (OCS malь etc.), (s)mǝl- (Arm. mal, Goth. smals etc.)[this means *smHlo-?], 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 μῆλον-group of *mē- bleat (s. μηκάομαι). -- Cf. WP. 2, 296f (with open doubt), Pok. 724, W.-Hofmann s. 3. malus, Vasmer s. mályj.

Forms: (auch dor.)
Grammar: n., meist pl. -α (μηλάτων Lyk. 106 nach προβάτων)
Meaning: Kleinvieh, Schafe und Ziegen (ep. poet. seit Il.).
Composita: Oft als Vorderglied, z.B. μηλοβότης, dor. -τας Schafhirt (Pi., E. in lyr.), auch -βοτήρ (Σ 529, h. Merc. 286) in -βοτῆρας am Versende, nach dem Simplex (Fraenkel Nom. ag. 1, 65, Chantraine Form. 323, Risch ̨ 13d, Shipp Studies 66); μηλάταν· τὸν ποιμένα.

Kom., hell. u. sp.; wie κηρωτή u.a.) mit Μηλώσιος Bein. des Zeus (Kork., Naxos), eig. "der in ein Schaffell gehüllte" (Nilsson Gr. Rel. 1, 395f.).
Etymology: Altes Wort für Kleinvieh, das im Keltischen mehrfach belegt ist, z.B. air. mil n. kleines Tier, und sich sporadisch auch auf westgerm. Boden wiederfindet in andfränk. māla Kuh, ndl. maal junge Kuh (wozu noch der alte N. des Harz Μηλίβοκον ὄρος?). — Gegenüber diesen Wörtern, die alle auf idg. *mēlo- zurückgehen können, steht mit a-Vokal arm. mal Schaf, auch klruss. mal’ f. Kleinvieh, junge Schafe, russ. (Krim) malíč Art Krimschafe. Es liegt nahe, die letztgenannten Wörter mit dem gemeinslav. Adj. für klein zu verknüpfen, z.B. aksl. malъ, russ. mályj. Ein weiterer Schritt führt zum germ. Wort für ‘klein, schmal’ in got. smals usw., das oft auf kleines Vieh bezogen wird, z.B. awno. smale m. kleines Tier, ahd. smalaz fihu ’Schmal-vieh, Kleinvieh’. Bei Ansetzung von idg.
