|etymtx=Grammatical information: f.<br />Meaning: <b class="b2">span, the range between the stretched thumbs and the little finger</b> (IA).<br />Compounds: As 2. member a. o. in <b class="b3">τρι-σπίθαμος</b> <b class="b2">measuring three spans</b> (Hes. Op. 426 a.o.; cf. den Boer Mnem. 4 : 9, 3).<br />Derivatives: <b class="b3">σπιθαμ-ιαῖος</b> <b class="b2">one span wide</b> (Hp., Arist. a. o.).<br />Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin](X)<br />Etymology: Has be compared with the group <b class="b3">παλάμη</b>, <b class="b3">δόχμη</b>, <b class="b3">πυγμή</b> (s. vv. w. lit.) a. o.; on the <b class="b3">θ-</b>suffix cf. also <b class="b3">σπιθίαι σανίδες</b> (planks) <b class="b3">νεώς</b> H. (here Frisk mentions Germ. Spant, I don't understand why). -- I see no reason to connect [[σπίδιος]] a. cognates. - It seems to me that this is a Pre-Greek word (suffix <b class="b3">-αμ-</b>), though I see no further indications for it. | |||
