|etymtx=Grammatical information: m. n.<br />Meaning: <b class="b2">Egyptian or northern (LSJ) beer</b> (Thphr., Str.; The Egyptians did not kmow the wine acc. to Hdt. 2, 77, but this is wrong (Masson, RPh. 1962, 50), A. Supp. 952f.).<br />Other forms: Pap. almost only <b class="b3">ζῦτος</b> (<b class="b3">-ύ-</b>; s. LSJ.); the <b class="b3">υ</b> is long in verse, LSJ.<br />Compounds: As 1. member e. g. in <b class="b3">ζυτο-ποιός</b>, <b class="b3">-έω</b>, <b class="b3">-ία</b> <b class="b2">beer-brewer, brew, brewing</b> (pap.).<br />Derivatives: <b class="b3">ζύθιον ἀλφίτου πόσις</b> H., <b class="b3">ζυτᾶς</b> [[brewer]], <b class="b3">ζυτηρά</b> <b class="b2">beer-tax</b>, <b class="b3">ζυτικός</b>, n. <b class="b3">-όν</b> <b class="b2">id.</b> (pap.).<br />Origin: LW [a loanword which is (probably) not of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably] Egypt.<br />Etymology: The meaning suggests Egyptian origin (Sommer Lautstud. 153, Peruzzi Humanitas 1, 138f., Nencione, St. It. Fil Class. 16 (1939) 21 n. 2). The comparison with <b class="b3">ζύμη</b> might point to IE origin (Schrader-Nehring Reallex. 1, 143, also Specht Ursprung 255). The variation <b class="b3">θ</b>\/<b class="b3">τ</b> seems to point to Pre-Greek, but I see no confirmation. A Greek suffix <b class="b3">-θος</b> is doubtful, cf. Chantraine, Form. 365-8. Henning (BSOAS 11 (1949) 720 and 28 (1965) 245) thinks that the word was taken from Scythian, cf. Sogd. [[zwtk]] (read: [[zute]]) <b class="b2">alcoholic drink, beer</b>, as in the case of <b class="b3">ἀκινάκης</b>. | |||
