|etymtx=Grammatical information: n.<br />Meaning: <b class="b2">winnowing-shovel</b> (Ν 588, A., S. in Fr., Theoc.).<br />Other forms: acc. to Ael. Dion. a.o. (young)att. <b class="b3">πτέον</b>.<br />Derivatives: Dimin. <b class="b3">πτυάριον</b> n. (Hdn., EM) and <b class="b3">δίπτυον Κύπριοι μέτρον</b>, <b class="b3">οἱ δε τὸ ἡμιμέδιμνον</b> H.<br />Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]<br />Etymology: Of old (s. Curtius 498) compared with Skt. <b class="b2">pávate</b>, <b class="b2">punā́ti</b> [[purify]], a.o. of corn, then also with OHG [[fowen]] (PGm. <b class="b2">*fawjan</b>) <b class="b2">sieve, purify corn</b> (Prellwitz) (further WP. 2, 13, Pok. 827), which supposes secondary <b class="b3">πτ-</b> as in <b class="b3">πτέρνη</b>, <b class="b3">πτίσσω</b>. The form <b class="b3">πτέον</b> only mentioned by grammarians and by them explained as Att. is unexplained (acc. to Kalén Quaest. gramm. gr. 13 ff. from <b class="b3">πτύον</b> through spontaneous change <b class="b3">υ</b> > <b class="b3">ε</b>; on this Schwyzer 183 f.), if one does not accept old full grade (with second. <b class="b3">πτύον</b> after <b class="b3">πτύω</b>?; cf. Curtius l.c.). -- The variation prob. points to a Pre-Greek word (Furnée 314). | |||
