[Seite 359] ές (πέδον – ἀρι?), Nic. Th. 420, flach, κάρη, Schol. ἐπίπλατον καὶ ὁμαλόν. Davon

Greek (Liddell-Scott)

ἀρπεδής: -ές, Νικ. Θ. 420· καὶ ἀρπεδόεις, εσσα, εν, Ἐτυμολ. Μ., 148, 8 (ἔνθαἑρμηνεία τῆς λέξεως φαίνεται λίαν συγκεχυμένη), ἐπίπεδος, ὁμαλός (ἴσως ἀντὶ ἀριπεδής): ἀ(ρ)πεδίζειν· «ὁμαλίζειν» Ἡσύχ., ἴδε ἀπεδίζω.

Frisk Etymological English

ἀρπεδής (ἁρ-)
Grammatical information: adj.
Meaning: flat (Nic. Th. 420).
Other forms: Sometimes with spir. asper. Cf. ἐρπεδόεσσα (-δοσσα ms.) ἐπίπεδος H.
Derivatives: ἀρπεδόεις (Antim. Col.). Denom. ἀρπεδίσαι ὁμαλίσαι, ἐδαφίσαι H.
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]
Etymology: Connection with πέδον (cf. ἄ-πεδος flat) leads nowhere. Since antiquity derived from ἀρι-πεδής (Did., Hdn.), which is rightly rejected by Frisk. Szemerényi elaborates this idea (Syncope, 277, 288). Cf. Grošelj, Živa Ant. 7 (1957) 225f. - If the gloss with ἐ- is reliable, a substr. word. (Frisk refers to ἔρθυρις = ἐρίθυρις, to show ἐρ- < ἐρι-?).

Frisk Etymology German

ἀρπεδής: (ἁρ-)
{arpedḗs}
Meaning: eben, flach (Nik. Th. 420).
Derivative: Erweiterte Form ἀρπεδόεις (Antim. Kol., H.). Denominatives Verb ἀρπεδίσαι· ὁμαλίσαι, ἐδαφίσαι H.
Etymology : Anknüpfung an πέδον liegt nahe (vgl. ἄπεδος eben, flach), aber die Herleitung aus ἀριπεδής (Did., Hdn., Hoffmann Dial. 2, 235) überzeugt nicht. — Daneben mit abweichendem Anlaut ἐρπεδόεσσα· ἐπίπεδος H.; vgl. s. ἔρθυρις.
