|etymtx=-ου<br />Grammatical information: m.<br />Meaning: | |etymtx=-ου<br />Grammatical information: m.<br />Meaning: [[grain-eating]] (Od.)<br />Dialectal forms: Dor. <b class="b3">ἀλφηστάς</b> a fish [[Labrus cinaedus]] (Epich.); also calles <b class="b3">κίναιδος</b>, cf. Strömberg Fischnamen 56; also Thompson, Fishes.<br />Origin: GR [a formation built with Greek elements]<br />Etymology: Clearly from <b class="b3">ἄλφι</b>, in opposition to <b class="b3">ὠμηστής</b>, plus <b class="b2">*h₁ed-</b> [[eat]], in the expression <b class="b3">ἀνέρες ἀλφησταί</b>. In antiquity, strangely enough, not understood, cf. <b class="b3">ἀλφηστῃ̃σι τοῖς εὑρετικοῖς καὶ συνετοῖς</b> H., which is mostly (correctly?) rendered by [[enterprising]] and derived from <b class="b3">ἀλφάνω</b> (which seems also doubtful; the gloss rather means [[intelligent]], and does not refer to <b class="b3">ἀλφάνω</b>). The <b class="b3">-ι-</b> lost for metrical reasons, Fraenkel Nom. ag. 1, 38. | ||
