αἰσθάνομαι: Difference between revisions

|etymtx=Grammatical information: v.<br />Meaning: [[perceive]], [[apprehend]] (Hp.).<br />Other forms: sometimes [[αἴσθομαι]] (Th.), aor. [[αἰσθέσθαι]], fut. [[αἰσθήσεσθαι]].<br />Derivatives: [[αἴσθησις]] [[perception]], [[knowledge]] (Hp.), - [[αἰσθητός]] [[perceptible]].<br />Origin: IE [Indo-European] [78] <b class="b2">*h₂eu-is-</b> [[perceive]]<br />Etymology: Generally interpreted as <b class="b3">*ἀϜισ-θ-</b> and connected with [[ἀΐω]] ([[quod vide|q.v.]]) [[perceive]], [[hear]]. The same form would have given Lat. [[audio]]. Further to Skt. aviṣ, Av. [[auuiš]], OCS <b class="b2">(j)avě</b> [[evidently]]. The structure of the last words, however, is unknown. One might think of <b class="b2">*avis-dheh₁-</b>, cf. MP [[askarag]] from Iran. <b class="b2">*aviš-kar-</b>. It would imply <b class="b2">*h₂euis-</b> ( a from [[h₂e]] ?) and exclude Latin.
