|ftr='''ἕκητι''': {hékēti}<br />'''Forms''': [[ἕκατι]]<br />'''Meaning''': [[nach dem Willen]], [[um willen]], [[wegen]] (poet. seit Od.),<br />'''Composita''' : [[ἀέκητι]] [[gegen den Willen]] (Hom., Hes. ''Th''. 529, B. 18, 9 [-α-], A. R.).<br />'''Etymology''' : Zu ἑκα-, [[ἑκών]] bzw. [[ἀέκων]] mit unklarer Bildungsweise. Nach Leumann Hom. Wörter 251ff. wurde ([[θεῶν]]) [[ἀέκητι]] zuerst von einem Rhapsoden für ([[θεῶν]]) ἀεκόντων nach dem Gegenstück ([[θεῶν]]) ἰότητι geschaffen; im Anschluß daran entstand [[ἕκητι]], das von der Odyssee aus in der dorischen und dorisierenden Chorlyrik, endlich auch in der Tragödie einen erweiterten Gebrauch fand. — Referat älterer Erklärungsversuche bei Leumann a. a.
