ληκάω

ληκάω
ληκάω
Grammatical information: v.
Meaning: `βινεῖν, futuere' (com., H.), acc. to H. also = 'τὸ πρὸς ᾠδην ὀρχεῖσθααι'.
Other forms: aor. ληκῆσαι.
Compounds: also with ὑπο-.
Derivatives: ληκήματα pl. (Epicur. Fr. 414); ληκω τὸ μόριον H.; also ληκίνδα παίζειν `beat time, drum with the fingers' (Luc., A.D.).
Origin: IE [Indo-European]X [probably] [673] *lek-? `spring'
Etymology: Iterative - intensive formation like πηδάω a. o. (Schwyzer 719) and as such identical with Latv. lę̃kâju, lę̃kât `fly, spring, hop'; the meaning 'βινεῖν' is of course euphemistic and secondary. The primary verb is seen in Lith. lekiù, lẽkti `fly, run', Latv. lèkt `id.'. Further forms in WP. 2, 420f., Pok. 673, Fraenkel Wb. s. lė̃kti, W.-Hofmann s. lacertus and lōcusta(?).
See also: S. auch zu λάξ und λαικάζω.
