[[ὄδωδα]] all verbal forms are innovations based on the pres. [[ὄζω]]. The derivations too are based largely on th present. On its own are however [[ὀδωδή]] (derived from the perfect?), but also the in Greek isolated [[ὀδμή]] and <b class="b3">-ώδης</b>. Both can be old, if [[ὀδμή]] agrees with Alb. <b class="b2">amë</b> [[unpleasant smell]] (IE <b class="b2">*od-mā</b>), <b class="b3">-ώδης</b> represents the s-stem of Lat. [[odor]], OLat. [[odōs]], prob. seen also in Arm. [[hot]], gen. <b class="b2">-oy</b> (h- second.) [[smell]], [[odour]], IE <b class="b2">*odos-</b>, either with compositional lengthening or with old lengthened grade (IE <b class="b2">*ōdos-</b>; cf. Lith. <b class="b2">úodžiu</b> below) as in Arm. <b class="b2">-ut</b> (e.g. [[hr-ut]] = [[πυρώδης]] from [[hur]] = [[πῦρ]]) beside <b class="b2">-ot</b> (e.g. [[bor-ot]] <b class="b2">w. florescence</b>). However [[ὀσμή]] not with Brugmann Grundr.2 II: 1, 251 a.o. from <b class="b3">*ὀδ-σ-μά</b> but purely phonetically from <b class="b3">ὀδ-μά</b>, s. Schwyzer 208; cf. also [[ὀσφραίνομαι]]. -- Both IE <b class="b2">*od-mā</b> and <b class="b2">*odos-</b> presuppose a primary rootpresent, which is retained in themat. form in Lat. [[ol-ō]], [[ol-ere]] (with [[l]] for [[d]]); beside it the more usual innovation <b class="b2">ol-e-ō</b>, <b class="b2">-ēre</b> (after the intransitives). The yot-pressent [[ὄζω]] differs only in the vowellength from Balt., e.g. Lith. <b class="b2">úodžiu</b> [[smell]]; we now know that the Baltic form has a long vowel because of Winter's Law (lengthening before voiced consonant). Arm. [[hot-im]] [[smell]] is a denominative of [[hot]] (s. above). To the redupl. perf. <b class="b3">ὄδ-ωδ-α</b> presents the Arm. pres. <b class="b2">hot-ot-im</b> (with intensive reduplication) a close formal parallel. -- Further forms w. rich lit. in WP. 1, 174, Pok. 772f., W.-Hofmann s. [[odor]], Ernout-Meillet s. [[odor]] (important for the morphology); cf. Porzig Gliederung 177 and Satzinhalte 289.
