Headword:
*mei/s
Adler number: mu,861
Translated headword: month
Vetting Status: high
Translation: [mei/s means] month in Aeolic.
Greek Original:*mei/s: mh\n *ai)olikw=s.
Notes:
From the
scholia to
Homer,
Iliad 19.117, where the headword occurs.
Two nominatives,
mei/s and
mh/n (
mu 946), occur: see LSJ s.v. (web address 1). The former does not appear to be specifically Aeolic. This noun represents the Indo-European word for "moon," generally replaced by
selh/nh in Greek (see
sigma 205) as by
luna in Latin.
