παπταίνω

παπταίνω
παπταίνω
Grammatical information: v.
Meaning: `to look around, to glance at smth.' (Il.).
Other forms: Aor. παπτῆναι (-ᾶναι Pi.), fut. -ανέω.
Compounds: Rarely w. ἀπο-, δια-, περι-.
Derivatives: Besides πεπτήνας περιβλεψάμενος H. and, from cross with παμφαλώμενος (s. παμφαλάω), παπταλώ-μενος (Lyc.).
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]
Etymology: Intensive reduplicated formation πα-πτ-αίνω (to which analog. -ανέω, -ῆναι; Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 375). Since long (Legerlotz KZ 8, 417) connected with some Cypriot H.glosses: ἰμπάταον ἔμβλεψον. Πάφιοι, ἰνκαπάταον ἐγκατάβλεψον. The here found aor. πατά-σαι may also be seen in καπατάς καθορῶν. παρὰ Εὔκλῳ H. (cod. κάπατας καθαρόν ... Εὑηλῶν), if contracted from *πατάσας (Hoffmann Dial. 1, 118); diff. Bechtel Lex. 270 (with M. Schmidt): from pres. *πάτᾱμι. The form ἀνεπάταξεν ἐξ ὕπνου ἀνέβλεψεν, which stands beside it, one is prepared to consider as, `elevate (the eyes)' and to connect with πατάσσω; here further καπατᾶ κατακόψεις. Πάφιοι H., prob. with Hoffmann l.c. from *πατά-ω `beat' (in πάτα-γος, πατά-σσω). Is also πατά-σαι `glance', and finally also πα-πτ-αίνω semantiscally to be connected? Or the last to πέτομαι from fluttering around of the look? - The word can hardly be IE.
