[[ἐρωτάω]], on the [[other]] [[hand]], is to [[request]] a [[person]] to do ([[rarely]] to [[give]]) [[something]]; referring [[more]] [[directly]] to the [[person]], it is [[naturally]] used in [[exhortation]], etc. The views of Trench are [[also]] rejected by Cremer, 4te Aufl. [[under]] the [[word]] The [[latter]] distinguishes [[αἰτέω]] from [[similar]] words as follows: "[[αἰτέω]] denotes the [[request]] of the [[will]], [[ἐπιθυμέω]] [[that]] of the sensibilities, [[δέομαι]] the [[asking]] of [[need]], [[while]] [[ἐρωτάω]] marks the [[form]] of the [[request]], as does εὔχεσθαι [[also]], [[which]] in classic Greek is the [[proper]] [[expression]] for a [[request]] directed to the gods and embodying itself in [[prayer]]." [[ἐρωτάω]], [[αἰτέω]] and [[δέομαι]] are [[also]] compared briefy by Green, Critical Notes, etc. (on [[ἐρωτάω]] "it cannot [[serve]] to [[indicate]] [[directly]] [[any]] [[peculiar]] [[position]], [[absolute]] or [[relative]], of the [[agent]]. The [[use]] of the [[word]] [[may]], [[therefore]], be viewed as having [[relation]] to the [[manner]] and [[cast]] of the [[request]], [[namely]], [[when]] [[carrying]] a [[certain]] [[freedom]] of [[aim]] and [[bearing]]; a [[thing]] [[inseparable]] from the [[act]] of [[direct]] [[interrogation]]"; cf. [[further]] Schmidt, [[chapter]] 7. Compare: [[ἀπαιτέω]], [[ἐξαιτέω]], [[ἐπαιτέω]], παραιτέω (παραιτοῦμαι), [[προσαιτέω]].)
