IVp) [[to ogle]], [[to peep at]].<br />Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]<br />Etymology: Understandably the word has been derived from the root <b class="b3">ὀπ-</b> [[see]]. Variants are Boeot. [[ὄκταλλος]], Epid. Lac. <b class="b3">ὀπτίλ(λ)ος</b>. The group [[κτ]] : [[πτ]] : [[φθ]] ("mit altem [[κτ]] [but see below], analogischem [[πτ]] und expressivem [[φθ]]" (Frisk) [Schwyzer 299 bzw. Benveniste Origines 48]?) has been connected with the group <b class="b2">kṣ</b> in Skt. <b class="b2">ákṣi</b> [[eye]] Schwyzer 317 w. lit.). With the suppletive <b class="b2">n-</b>stem e.g. in gen. <b class="b2">akṣ-ṇ-ás</b> the <b class="b2">l-</b>stem in <b class="b3">ὀφθ-αλ-μός</b> would correspond (Specht 351n.1). "Die lautlichen Einzelheiten sind indessen nicht endgültig und eindeutig aufgeklärt" (Frisk). An IE laibo-velar before consonat became a labial, Lejeune Phonét. $ 42, so Frisks "mit altem [[κτ]]" is wrong. The rise of <b class="b3">-αλ(λ</b>)- cannot be explained from IE. The repeated attempts, to explain [[ὀφθαλμός]] as a compound, are all wrong (to [[θάλαμος]] Brugmann, s. Bq and WP. 1, 864). The variation cannot well be explained as IE, nor can the formation of [[ὀφθαλμός]]. [[ὄκταλλος]] has a Pre-Greek suffix, Beekes FS Kortlandt.; already Devel. 193); it continues a palatalized [[l]] (i.e. <b class="b2">*ly</b>, which was represented as a geminate). This leads to a PGr. reconstruction <b class="b2">*akʷt-aly-(m)-</b> (with <b class="b2">*a-</b> = ([[ο]]) before the labiovelar). Here the labiovelar could become a labial, but the labial element could also be ignored, which gave <b class="b3">ὀκτ-</b>. Aspiration was not phonemic in Pre-Greek, hence the variant <b class="b3">ὀφθ-</b> is unproblematic. In <b class="b3">ὀπτίλ(λ)ος</b> apparently the (second) <b class="b2">*a</b> became [[i]] through the following labialized consonant. The fact that PGr. <b class="b2">*akʷ-</b> strongly resembles IE <b class="b2">*h₃ekʷ-</b> is a mere coincidence, an accident that may be expected to occur here and there. -- Note the expressive geminate in <b class="b3">ὄκκον ὀφθαλμόν</b> H. (to Arm. [[akn]]? Meillet BSL 26, 15f.; s. also Lejeune Traité de phon. 72 n. 1); this word may well be of IE origin. -- For words derived from the IE root <b class="b3">ὀπ-</b> [[see]], s. [[ὄμμα]], [[ὄσσε]], [[ὄπωπα]]; cf. WP. 1, 169ff., Pok. 775ff., W.-Hofmann s. [[oculus]] etc.
