Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: m.
Meaning: geographical term (Hom., h. Ap. 283, Orph. A. 465), e. g. Ἴδης ἐν κνημοῖσι (Il.), meaning uncertain, prob projecting part, shoulder of a mountain, δημόσιος κνημός public grove (TAM 2: 1, 64, Telmessos; not quite certain); also = ὀρίγανος (Arg., Eust. 265, 40).
Derivatives: Denomin. κνημῶσαι περιχῶσαι, φράξαι, φθεῖραι, κλεῖσαι, ἐλθεῖν; κνημοῦμαι φθείρομαι, κνημωθῆναι φθαρῆναι, διεκνημώσατο διέφθειρε H. In the sense encircle etc. cf. κνημός = grove; unclear = φθεῖραι (cf. κνημίαι φθοραί H. and Scheller Oxytonierung 63f.).
Origin: IE [Indo-European]X [probably] [614] *kneh₂-m-, *konh₂-m- mountain-forest
Etymology: The meaning of κνημός recalls NLG hamm mountain-forest (Fick KZ 21, 368), which however agrees rather with MLG. ham piece of land fenced in, NLG hamme field fenced in and can be explained differently. - Connection with κνήμη ("shank of a mountain"?; acc. to Eust. 1498, 42 = what is above the foot), remains uncertain.

Middle Liddell

κνημός, οῦ,
the projecting limb or (as we say) shoulder of a mountain, Hom.

Frisk Etymology German

κνημός: {knēmós}
Grammar: m.
Meaning: geographischer Ausdruck (Hom., h. Ap. 283, Orph. A. 465), z. B. Ἴδης ἐν κνημοῖσι (Il.), Bed. unsicher, etwa Berghang, Bergvorsprung, Bergwald, δημόσιος κνημός öffentlicher Hain (TAM 2: 1, 64, Telmessos; nicht ganz sicher); außerdem = ὀρίγανος (arg., Eust. 265, 40).
Derivative: Denominatives Verb κνημῶσαι· περιχῶσαι, φράξαι, φθεῖραι, κλεῖσαι, ἐλθεῖν; κνημοῦμαι· φθείρομαι, κνημωθῆναι· φθαρῆναι, διεκνημώσατο· διέφθειρε H. Im Sinn von umzäunen vgl. κνημός = Hain; dunkel = φθεῖραι (vgl. κνημίαι· φθοραί H. und Scheller Oxytonierung 63f.).
Etymology: Der Bedeutung nach erinnert κνημός an ndd. hamm Bergwald (Fick KZ 21, 368), das indessen eher mit mnd. ham eingefriedetes Stück Land, ndd. hamme umzäuntes Feld zusammenzustellen ist und dann anders erklärt werden kann (vgl. zu κημός). — Ob Beziehung zu κνήμη besteht ("Wade des Berges"?; nach Eust. 1498, 42 = was sich oberhalb des Fußes befindet), muß wegen der unklaren Bedeutung offen gelassen werden.
