Λιμῷ γὰρ οὐδέν ἐστιν ἀντειπεῖν ἔπος → Famem adeo responsare nil contra datur → Erfolgreich widerspricht dem Hunger nicht ein Wort

Menander, Monostichoi, 321

German (Pape)

Étymologie: cf. ἀσκωλιάζω.

Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: n. pl.
Meaning: feast for Dionysos (Sch. Ar. Pl. 1129).
Derivatives: ἀσκωλιάζω (Ar. Pl. 1129), Sch. hop on greased wineskins at the A., from where Poll. 9, 121 ἀσκωλιασμός, elsewhere hop on one leg; jump up an down with legs held together (Arist.).
Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
Etymology: ἀσκώλ- from ἀσκός with a suffix -(ō)lo- was considered ( Chantr. Form. 243f., Schwyzer 484; diff. Wackernagel Gött. Nachr. 1902, 140), but given the different meaning the connection with ἀσκός will be secondary. - Comparing σκωλοβατίζω walk upon stilts (Epich.), and ἀγκωλιάδεν ἅλλεσθαι, Κρῆτες (AB 1, 327, 5), ἀγκωλιάζων ἁλλόμενος τῳ̃ ἑτέρῳ ποδί H. Schulze Q. Ep.141 n. 2 assumed *ἄσκωλος < *ἄν-σκωλος. S. Latte, Hermes 85, 1957, 385-392. But σκωλοβατίζω is something different, clearly derived from σκῶλος. DELG derives the ἀγκωλ- forms from ἀνα- and κῶλον (but if this means 'leg', it gives no good meaning). (Wrong Fur. 241.) Is χωλός connected?

Middle Liddell

ἀσκός
the 2nd day of the rural Dionysia, when they danced upon greased wine-skins, "unctos saluere per utres."
