[[nox]], gen. pl. <b class="b2">nocti-um</b>, Germ., e.g. Goth. [[nahts]], Skt. <b class="b2">nák</b>, acc. <b class="b2">nákt-am</b> (as adv.), Lith. <b class="b2">naktìs</b>, gen. pl. <b class="b2">nakt-ų̄</b>, Slav., e.g. OCS [[noštь]] etc., all from IE <b class="b2">*nokt-</b>; the <b class="b2">i-</b>stem in Lat. <b class="b2">nocti-um</b>, Lith. <b class="b2">nakt-ìs</b>, OCS <b class="b2">nošt-ь</b> etc. comes from innovations of the separate languages. The deviating <b class="b3">υ</b> in <b class="b3">νύξ</b> is often explained as reduced grade e.g. by Brugmann (e.g. Grundr.2II: 1,435), who sees in it the reflex of a following labiovelar; basis then <b class="b2">*nokʷt-</b>, what is confirmed by Hitt. [[nekuz]] (gen. sg.) from IE <b class="b2">*nekʷt-s</b>. Diff. W. Petersen AmJPh. 56, 56f. (<b class="b3">υ</b> after <b class="b3">*λύξ</b> in <b class="b3">ἀμφι-λύκ-η</b> etc.); Sapir Lang. 14, 274 (<b class="b3">υ</b> from a laryngal, which is certainly wrong); diff. still H. Petersson LUÅ, NF 11 : 5, 12 f. (rejected by imself Heteroklisie 122 f.). -- The pregr. existence of the <b class="b2">r-</b>stem in <b class="b3">νύκτωρ</b> (formation like <b class="b3">ὕδωρ</b>?; Schwyzer 519 a. n. 4) etc. is proven by Lat. [[nocturnus]]; the further formation of the adjectives goes partly parallel to the derivv. from <b class="b3">ἦμαρ</b>, <b class="b3">ἡμέρα</b>: <b class="b3">νυκτερινός</b> : <b class="b3">ἡμερινός</b>, <b class="b3">νυκτέριος</b> : <b class="b3">ἡμέριος</b>, <b class="b3">νυκτερήσιος</b> : <b class="b3">ἡμερήσιος</b> (s.v.); also <b class="b3">νυκτερεύω</b> : <b class="b3">ἡμερεύω</b>. Diff., hardly correct on <b class="b3">νύκτερος</b> Szemerényi Glotta 38, 120: innovation after <b class="b3">ἕσπερος</b>. An <b class="b2">i-</b>stem, alternating with the <b class="b2">r-</b>stem, is supposed by Benveniste Origines 81 with doubtful right in the 1. member <b class="b3">νυκτι-</b>-; cf. above. -- The aspirated and <b class="b2">t-</b>less form in <b class="b3">νύχα νύκτωρ</b> H., <b class="b3">ἔν-νυχ-ος</b>, <b class="b3">-ιος</b>, <b class="b3">εἰνά-νυχ-ες</b>, <b class="b2">nine nights long</b>, <b class="b3">νύχιος</b> etc. is attested only for Greek; a convincing explanation has not yet been given; s. the lit. in W.-Hofmann s.
