摘要
自古代以来,对阿提伽希腊语τ ης ' gourmand, glutton ' (Ar.+)的词源分析一直集中在与晦涩的Hesiodic hapax τ δει (Op. 524)的比较上。在本文中,我拒绝了这个毫无希望的解决方案,回到了索姆森(1897)提出的一个被遗忘的建议,他将τ ης与PN Πενθεύς ~ Τενθεύς和Lat进行了比较。修饰词根“给(食物)调味”,重新构造词根*k * end * -/*k * ond * -。虽然索姆森没有对这个词根进行进一步的分析,但我认为它可能已经在PIE阶段出现了,它是由*k æ em-“吞,吞”加上“去及物化”后缀*-d *- e/o-演变而来的。现在的词干*k * em-d * e/o-带有不确定宾语删除的不及物意思“吞下食物”,这在类型学上在“摄取”动词中很常见。除了代理名词τ ης之外,我认为π θνη ~ φ τνη ' crib, manger '是'新词根' *k k k end k -/*k k k k ond k -/*k k k n ' d k -的另一个名义衍生词。最后,我讨论了Lat的其他可能的词源。赖斯ō。
Abstract The etymological analysis of Attic Greek τένθης ‘gourmand, glutton’ (Ar.+) has focused since Antiquity on comparison with the obscure Hesiodic hapax τένδει (Op. 524). Rejecting this unpromising solution, in this paper I go back to a forgotten proposal by Solmsen (1897), who compared τένθης with the PN Πενθεύς ~ Τενθεύς and Lat. condiō ‘to season (food)’, reconstructing a root *kʷendʰ-/*kʷondʰ-. While Solmsen did not pursue further analysis of this root, I propose that it arose - possibly already at the PIE stage - from *kʷem- ‘gulp, swallow’ with addition of the “detransitivizing” suffix *-dʰ-e/o-. The present stem *kʷem-dʰe/o- would have had the intransitive meaning ‘to swallow food’ with Indefinite Object Deletion, as is typologically common in “ingestive” verbs. In addition to the agent noun τένθης, I suggest that πάθνη ~ φάτνη ‘crib, manger’ was another nominal derivative of the ‘neo-root’ *kʷendʰ-/*kʷondʰ-/*kʷn̥dʰ-. I conclude by discussing other possible etymologies of Lat. condiō.
