Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: adj.
Meaning: fasting of (food) (Il., only in T)
Origin: IE [Indo-European] [557] *ḱemh₂- get tired
Etymology: A Scholion on Τ 163 derives it from Aeol. ἄκμα, which Hesychius explains as νηστεία, ἔνδεια. Bechtel Lex. compares κομῶσα γέμουσα H., which would give α privativum and zero grade -κμ-; very uncertain. Further Bq. and Pisani AnFilCl. 5, 93. Fur. 369 compares OGeorg. si-q̇mili hunger etc.; very uncertain. Blanc BSL 94, 1999, 317-338 proposes derivation from *ḱemh₂- (κάμνω) care (for), which gives (though) not (properly) cared for (cf. πολύκμητος); attractive.
