The in vocalism deviating [[νέω]], [[νεῦσαι]] agrees with [[πλέω]] : [[πλεῦσαι]] and can be a rhime-formation; verbal nouns with <b class="b2">o-</b>ablaut are supposed in [[νόα]] (rather with Bechtel Dial. 2, 378, Wackernagel Phil. 95, 178 = Kl.

(Schwyzer 703). -- From <b class="b3">ἔ-ννη</b> and <b class="b3">ἐΰ-ννητος</b> [[well spun]] (Hom.) appears an orig. <b class="b2">sn-</b>, which is also seen in MIr. [[snīid]] [[spinns]], [[restores]] and perhaps in Lat. <b class="b2">nē-re</b> [[spin]]; an <b class="b2">s-</b>less form is however ascertained a.o. by German., e.g. OHG <b class="b2">nā-en</b> [[sew]]. Monosyllabic <b class="b3">νῃ̃</b> can stand for <b class="b3">*σνηι-ει</b> and can be compared directly with Skt. <b class="b2">snāy-ati</b> [[winds around]], [[clothes]] and with Lat. [[neō]] < <b class="b2">*snēi-ō</b> (on the stem s. below). Like <b class="b3">ἔ-ννη</b> from <b class="b2">*e-snē</b> can [[νῆ]] also be athematic (Schwyzer 675). But [[νῶσι]], [[νῶντα]], [[νώμενος]] are rather thematic from <b class="b3">*νη-ουσι</b>, <b class="b3">*νή-οντα</b>, <b class="b3">*νη-όμενος</b> than with old <b class="b2">ō-</b>ablaut, which however occurs frequently outside Greek, e.g. in Latv. [[snāju]], [[snāt]] <b class="b2">wind together loosely, e.g. spinning</b> and in several nouns like OIr. [[snāthe]] [[thread]], OGutn. [[snōÞ]] [[cord]] = OE [[snōd]] [[headband]] (OHG [[snuor]] [[Schnur]] is polyinterpret.). Beside IE <b class="b2">snē-</b> : <b class="b2">snō-</b> there are, especially in Balto-Slav., forms with <b class="b2">ī-</b>vowel, e.g. Russ. [[nitь]] [[thread]]; for <b class="b3">νῃ̃</b> < <b class="b3">*σνηι-ει</b>, [[snāyati]] (beside <b class="b2">snāy-u-</b> [[band]], [[sinew]]), Lat. [[neō]], remains beside the explanation as yotpresent also an old longdiphthong to be sonsidered [improbable]. -- With [[νῆμα]] agrees Lat. [[nēmen]] n. [[phantom]], which is however a young formation; OCS [[snopь]] [[sheaf]], [[band]], compared by Specht KZ 68, 123 is far away. Also the genetically identical [[νῆσις]] and OHG [[nāt]] [[Naht]] are rather parallel innovations. -- WP. 2, 694f., Pok. 973, W.-Hofmann s.

[[heaping up]] (sch. A. R. 1, 403).<br />Origin: XX [etym. unknown]<br />Etymology: Hom. <b class="b3">-ενήνεον</b> may have a lengthened grade intensive reduplication [but <b class="b3">δη-δέχ-αται</b> does not exist] (Brugmann-Thumb 304); by Brugmann Grundr.2 II : 3, 27 strongly doubted with agreement of Schwyzer 648 n. 3, who assumes a mistake for <b class="b3">-ενήεον</b>. The pres. [[νηέω]], supposed on the basis of [[νήει]], [[νήεον]], can like other presents in <b class="b3">-έω</b> have started from the mon-present stem in [[η]] in [[νηῆσαι]] (cf. Schwyzer 721), thus <b class="b3">-νέω</b> from [[νῆσαι]] (the last shortened from [[νηῆσαι]] [LSJ, Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 348]?; "improbable" Schwyzer l.c.); the forms remain anyhow unclear. Also <b class="b3">νῶντος σωρεύοντος</b> (Phot.) can be explained in diff. ways. -- No etymology.
