|ftr='''ἄχνη''': {ákhnē}<br />'''Grammar''': f.<br />'''Meaning''': [[Spreu]], [[Schaum]], [[Flaum]] (poet. seit Il., auch Hp.).<br />'''Derivative''': Davon ἀχνῶδες· ἄχνῃ ὅμοιον H.<br />'''Etymology''': Zum Vergleich melden sich einerseits — mit anderem Suffix — [[ἄχυρον]] [[Spreu]], anderseits — im Suffix dazu stimmend, aber im Guttural abweichend — lat. ''agna'' (aus *''ac''-''nā'') [[Ähre]], got. ''ahana'' [[Spreu]] usw. (vgl. zu [[ἄκων]]). In letzterem Falle wäre also für [[ἄχνη]] eine Suffixform -''snā'' (vgl. Schwyzer 327) anzusetzen mit Anlehnung an einen ''s''-Stamm (vgl. zu [[ἀκοστή]]), falls man nicht Einfluß von [[ἄχυρον]] mit ursprünglicher Aspirata annehmen will.
