|lstext='''ἑψία''': Ἰων. -ίη, ἡ, (ψῐά, ψειὰ) [[παιγνίδιον]] [[ὅπερ]] ἐπαίζετο διὰ ψηφιδίων: [[καθόλου]], [[παιδιά]], [[παιγνίδιον]], Νικ. Θ. 880· «[[ἑψία]]· [[γέλως]], [[παιδιά]], [[χλεύη]], [[ἔφοδος]]· ἀπὸ τοῦ ἕπεσθαι. [[ὁμιλία]]. Σοφοκλῆς Ἀθάμαντι δευτέρῳ (Ἀποσπ. Σοφ. 4.) «Ἡσύχ. Ὑπάρχει πληθ. [[τύπος]] ἔψια ἢ ἕψια, τά, ἐν Ἐτυμολ.

|etymtx=-ίη<br />Grammatical information: f.<br />Meaning: [[joy]], [[play]] (S. Fr. 3, Nic. Th. 880);<br />Other forms: Also <b class="b3">ἀψίαι ἑορταί</b>. [[Λάκωνες]] H.; [[ψιά]] H., [[ψιάδδειν]] = [[παίζειν]] (Ar.). Perhaps <b class="b3">ψίνθος τέρψις</b> H.<br />Compounds: as 2. member in <b class="b3">φιλ-έψιος</b> (Com.), <b class="b3">ὁμ-έψιος</b> (AP ). Also n. pl. <b class="b3">ἕψεια παίγνια</b> H., [[ἕψια]] (EM). Postverbal from [[ἑψιάομαι]], <b class="b3">-άσασθαι</b>, also with <b class="b3">ἀφ-</b>, <b class="b3">ἐφ-</b>, <b class="b3">καθ-</b>, <b class="b2">(en)joy, play</b> (Od.; cf. Wackernagel Unt. 46f.).<br />Derivatives: Also, through loss of the anlauting vowel (Strömberg Wortstudien 45), [[ψιάδδειν]] = [[παίζειν]] (Ar. Lys. 1302 [lyr.], H.), <b class="b3">ψιά χαρά</b>, [[γελοίασμα]], [[παίγνια]] H.<br />Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]<br />Etymology: Formation like the "verbs of disease" in <b class="b3">-ιάω</b> (Schwyzer 732); further unclear. Obsolete hypotheses in Bq. - Note the variations: <b class="b3">ἐ-</b>, <b class="b3">ἑ- ἀ</b>, stress on first or second syllable and [[ψιά]] H., [[ψιάδδειν]]; the word will be Pre-Greek (Fur. 139, 352, 376). - Meier-Brügger, MSS 50 (1989) assumes a noun <b class="b2">*sengʷ</b>ʰ<b class="b2">-ti-</b> [[singing]], with <b class="b3">*῎῎ἔψις</b> from <b class="b3">*εμψις</b>; one asks why <b class="b3">*ἕμψις</b> was not retained; it does not explain the variations; also there is no reason to assume that the word primarily referred to music.
