καυχάομαι
καυχάομαι
Grammatical information: v.
Meaning: `boast, be proud' (Pi., Sapph.).
Other forms: Aor. καυχήσασθαι (καυχάσ[α]ιτο Sapph. Supp. 4, 21), fut. καυχήσομαι, perf. κεκαύχημαι (2 Ep. Cor. 7, 14),
Compounds: also with ἐκ-, ἐν-, κατα-,
Derivatives: καύχα f. `ostentation' (Pi. Nem. 9, 6; backformation), καῦχος n. `object of boasting' (Syria Vp; backformation); καύχημα, -ᾱμα `id.' (Pi.) with καυχηματίας `boaster' (Ptol., sch.) and καυχηματικός (sch.), καύχησις `boasting' (hell.); καυχήμων `boasting' (Babr.); καυχητής `boaster' with καυχητικός, καυχητιάω (sch., EM).
Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
Etymology: Expressive iterative formation (cf. Schwyzer 717ff.) with several possible connections: to Arm. xausim `speak' (IE. *khauḱ-?; Pedersen KZ 39, 335) and Lith. šaukiù, šaũkti `cry, call loudly' (Prellwitz Wb; for the meaning cf. εὔχομαι). (Not to Skt. hávate, Av. zavaiti `call etc.', OCS zovǫ, zъvati `call', Arm. jaunem `dedicate' etc., which continue *gheuH-.) So no direct parallel; the -au- remains unexplained.
