|etymtx=Grammatical information: m. (Pi. O. 6, 24 [<b class="b3">ὄκχος</b>, s.u.], Hdt., A. usw.),<br />Meaning: [[cart]], [[carriage]], [[vehicle]] (Pi. O. 6, 24 [<b class="b3">ὄκχος</b>, s.b.], Hdt., A.).<br />Other forms: often pl. <b class="b3">-οι</b> (h. Cer.), <b class="b3">ὄχεα</b>, <b class="b3">-εσφι</b> n. pl. (Hom., Pi.).<br />Origin: IE [Indo-European] [1118] <b class="b2">*u̯eǵʰ-</b> [[move]], [[drive]]<br />Etymology: Old verbal noun to <b class="b3">Ϝέχω</b> <b class="b2">carry somewhere</b> (s. 2. <b class="b3">ἔχω</b>), <b class="b3">ὀχέομαι</b> [[drive]], so for <b class="b3">*Ϝόχος</b> (on the loss of the <b class="b3">Ϝ-</b> in Hom. Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 125) and identical wit Slav., e.g. OCS [[vozъ]] m. [[wagon]], IE <b class="b2">*u̯óǵho-s</b>. The in an <b class="b3">σ-</b>stem epected <b class="b3">ε-</b>vowel is preserved in <b class="b3">ἔχεσφι ἅρμασιν</b> H.; <b class="b3">ὄχεα</b> after <b class="b3">ὄχος</b>, <b class="b3">ὀχέομαι</b> (cf. on <b class="b3">ὄρος</b>). With <b class="b3">*Ϝέχος</b> (and [F]<b class="b3">όχεα</b>) agrees (except for the vowel length) Skt. <b class="b2">vā́has-</b> n. [[vessel]] (metaph. for the song of praise); beside <b class="b2">vāhá-</b> m. <b class="b2">draught-animal</b>, also [[vessel]], Av. <b class="b2">vāza-</b> m. <b class="b2">draught-animal</b> (: <b class="b3">ὄχο-ς</b>). A <b class="b2">n-</b>derivation with the same meaning was formed in the West, Celt., e.g. OIr. [[fēn]] <b class="b2">kind of wagon</b> (IE <b class="b2">*u̯egh-no-</b>), Germ. e.g. OHG [[wagan]] [[Wagen]] (IE <b class="b2">*u̯oǵh-no-</b>). Diff. again Lat. <b class="b2">vehi-culum</b> n. [[vessel]], Skt. <b class="b2">vahi-tra-</b> n. [[ship]] with <b class="b2">tlo-</b>suffix; thus <b class="b3">ὄχε-τλα ὀχήματα</b> H., which may have dissimilated <b class="b3">-θλα</b> (Schwyzer 533). The geminate in <b class="b3">ὄκχος</b>, <b class="b3">ὀκχέω</b> (Pi.) is unexplained; hypotheses in Schwyzer 717 n. 4 and Meillet BSL 26, 15 f. -- Further forms w. rich lit. WP. 1, 249f., Pok. 1118ff., W.-Hofmann s. [[vehō]], Fraenkel s. <b class="b2">vèžti</b>; see also Porzig Gliederung 120, 158 a. 170 (cf. the critical remarks by Humbach Gnomon 30, 622). -- Cf. [[ὀχέω]], [[ὄχλος]], <b class="b3">γαιάοχος</b>.
