|etymtx=Grammatical information: m.<br />Meaning: <b class="b2">fat pig, porker</b>, also appositive to <b class="b3">σῦς</b> <b class="b2">id.</b> (Hom., Q.S., Thphr ap. Porph.) with <b class="b3">σιαλ-ώδης</b> <b class="b2">porker-like, fat</b> (Hp.), <b class="b3">-οῦται τρέφεται</b> H.; also (metaph.) [[fat]], [[grease]] (Hp. Acut. [Sp.] 37; cf. bel.).<br />Other forms: Myc. <b class="b2">sia₂ro</b>.<br />Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]<br />Etymology: Without convincing etymology. After Kretschmer Glotta 13, 132f. and 27, 24 cross of <b class="b3">*σίς</b> [[swine]] (cf. <b class="b3">σίκα</b> s. [[σῦς]]) and <b class="b3">πίαλος</b>, the last of which is however only a secondary byform of <b class="b3">πιαλέος</b> (s. [[πῖαρ]]). Other attempts: to Germ., e.g. OE [[Þwīnan]] <b class="b2">become weak, die away</b> (IE <b class="b2">*tu̯ī-</b> beside [[tā]][[[i]]]- in <b class="b3">τήκω</b>; Lidén IF 19, 351 f.); to OCS <b class="b2">ty-ti</b> <b class="b2">become fat</b> (IE <b class="b2">*tu-ia</b>, <b class="b2">-ī</b> f. [[fatness]]; WP. 1, 706 asking; cf. Bechtel Lex. s.v.). Against the semant. possible identification of <b class="b3">σίαλος</b> [[grease]], [[lard]] with <b class="b3">σίαλον</b> [[spittle]] (Lidén l.c.) speaks the primary <b class="b3">σίαι πτύσαι</b>; also the hapax <b class="b3">σίαλος</b> [[grease]] may have arisen through ellipsis of <b class="b3">σίαλος</b> <b class="b2">fat swine</b>; cf. e.g. Fr. [[veau]] [[calb]], also <b class="b2">calf (-calf-leather</b>). -- The word will almost certainly be Pre-Greek. | |||
