Headword: Δαίω
Adler number: delta,122
Translated headword: I learn
Vetting Status: low
Translation:
I am learning.[1] [Future] δαίσω ,[2] [whence] δαί̈σκω ,[3] and by dropping the iota δάσκω [4] (since the words in common use which end in κω do not tend to have a diphthong); with reduplication διδάσκω ["I teach"],[5] and from this διδάσκαλος ["teacher"].[6]
Greek Original:
Δαίω: τὸ μανθάνω. δαίσω, δαί̈σκω, καὶ ἀποβολῇ τοῦ ι δάσκω: ἐπειδὴ τὰ εἰς κω κοινολεκτούμενα οὐ θέλουσι δίφθογγον ἔχειν: ἀναδιπλασιασμῷ διδάσκω καὶ ἐξ αὐτοῦ διδάσκαλος.
Notes:
Repeated at delta 860.
[1] The verb δάω or δαίω "learn" occurs only in the aorist active, future middle, and perfect active and middle; it also has a reduplicated aorist active with causal force δέδαε "he taught" (four times in Homer, Odyssey).
[2] This could be the future of δαίνυμι "give a banquet" (cf. delta 120); it does not occur in the sense of "teach."
[3] Hypothetical verb, unattested outside lexicography.
[4] Also hypothetical and unattested outside lexicography.
[5] Cf. delta 861, delta 856, delta 857, epsilon 232.
[6] Cf. delta 859, delta 860.
