(Cf. λῆμα, λῆσις (B), perhaps also λελίημαι: the dialects seem to point to λείω (fr. λεί-yω) as the original form, but the forms with λω- cannot have resulted from contr. of λειο-: a stem λαο- is doubtful, λάηται (βούληται) Hsch. being perhaps corrupt.)

Grammatical information: v.
Meaning: want, wish (Epich., Ar., Theoc., Dor, El. inscr.)
Other forms: λῃ̃ς, λῃ̃, λῶμες etc., El. opt. λΕοιταν, Cret. opt. λΕ(ι)οι, λΕιοιεν, subj. λΕιωντι, ptc. λΕιοντος, -α etc., inf. (coni. Ahrens Th. 5, 77) λῆν; the gloss λεῳμι seems Ion.

Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
Etymology: Unexplained. Because of forms like λΕιοι, λΕιωντι etc. an orig. long diphthong lēi- was supposed, to which also λαιδρός, λιλαίομαι (WP. 2, 393 with Solmsen KZ 44, 171); this however, is impossible. Diff. s. vv.; also λίαν was wrongly adduced. Against an orig. Ϝλη- (from *u̯lēi-?) to Lat. vel-le, wollen etc. s. WP. l.c., where also other, decidedly wrong interpretations are rejected (also in Bq). Further lit. in Schwyzer 676 w. n. 2. One might start from *le-i̯o, Bechtel, Gr. Dial. 2, 192. - Cf. λωΐων.

λῶ: {lō̃}
Forms: λῇς, λῇ, λῶμες usw., el. Opt. λΕοιταν, kret. Opt. λΕ(ι)οι, λΕιοιεν, Konj. λΕιωντι, Ptz. λΕιοντος, -α usw., Inf. (coni. Ahrens Th. 5, 77) λῆν, (dor. u. el. Inschr., Epich., Ar., Theok. usw.)
Grammar: v.
Meaning: wollen, wünschen.
Derivative: Davon 1. λῆμα n. Wille, Entschlossenheit, Mut, Verwegenheit (vorw. poet., auch Hdt.; Aly Glotta 15, 116) mit λημάτια· φρονήματα, βουλεύματα H., ληματίας m. Wagehals (Ar.

Etymology: Unerklärt. Wegen Formen wie λΕιοι, λΕιωντι usw. ist ein urspr. Langdiphthong lēi- vermutet worden, wozu angeblich λαιδρός, λιλαίομαι (WP. 2, 393 mit Solmsen KZ 44, 171); anders darüber s. vv.; auch λίαν ist mit Unrecht herangezogen worden. Gegen Ansetzung eines urspr. ϝλη- (aus *u̯lēi-?) zu lat. vel-le, wollen usw. s. WP. a.a.O., wo auch andere, entschieden falsche Deutungen abgelehnt werden (ebenfalls bei Bq). Weitere Lit. auch bei Schwyzer 676 m. A. 2. —Vgl. λωΐων.
