κνυζόω

κνυζόω
κνυζόω
Grammatical information: v.
Meaning: only κνυζώσω (ν 401), κνύζωσεν (ν 433), of the eyes of Odysseus, that, while earlier περικαλλέα ἐόντα, were made dim and dark by Athena.
Origin: PIE[Proto-Indo-European]X[probably] [559] *kneu-g-, -k- `get somber'?
Etymology: The basis seems preserved in κνυζοί οἱ τὰ ὄμματα πονοῦντες, κνυζόν ἀέρα ἐπινέφελον καὶ πνευματώδη H. (unclear Anacr. 87); cf. Büchner Herm. 75, 156 n. 1. Connection with κνύζα `scratch', κνύω is quite probable; the correspondence with κνυζάομαι is therefore prob. accidental. A remarkable parallel gives Lith. kniáuktis `get cloudy, cover oneself (of heaven), take a somber aspect' beside kniaũkti `miaow'; comparable niaũras `cloudy, somber, troubled', also `grumbling, nasalizing', niauróti `growl, of bears'. The word can be of independent (onomatopoetic or other) origin or show semantic analogy, can hsrdly be decided. Cf. Fraenkel Lit. et. Wb. s. kniáuka and niauróti. - Diff. on κνυζός, -όω (to ken- `press together'), certainly not better, WP. 1, 391, Pok. 559.
