Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
Etymology: The original confective meaning of εὑρίσκειν makes it probable, that the aorist will be archaic. Beside it was prob. an old perfect, seen in εὕρη-κα. After it came εὑρήσω; the latest member (beside εὑρεθῆναι) was the present εὑρίσκειν (quantity of the ι unknown), which was therefore an innovation. - The aorist εὑρεῖν can be a thematic root formation for *ἐ-Ϝρεῖν, with ἐ- as prothetic (which would mean *h₁w(e)r- ?) or from the ind. *ἔ-Ϝρ-ον (for *ἠ-Ϝρ-ον?); the aspiration secondary after ἑλεῖν a. o.? Or was it a reduplicated aorist *Ϝε-Ϝρεῖν with dissimilatory loss of the anlauting Ϝ- and secondary aspiration. - A reduplicated formation is found also in OIr. preterite -fúar `I found' \< IE *u̯e-u̯r- (pres. fo-gabim); the pass. -frīth `inventum est', which as IE *u̯rē-to- agrees with *Ϝρη- in -Ϝέ-Ϝρη-κα (\> εὕρηκα). Also in OCS ob-rětъ `I found' IE *u̯rē-t- has been supposed. - A full grade u̯er- is seen in Arm. gerem (sec. aorist gerec̣i) `take prisoner'. - Lit. in Schwyzer 709 n. 2. - See now Taillardat, RPh. 34 (1960) 232-235: from *su̯er-, with *sesure \> εὗρε (?).
