Translated headword: I learn
Vetting Status: high
Translation: [dai/w is] the [verb which means the same as] manqa/nw.[1] [Future] dai/sw,[2] [whence] dai/+skw,[3] and by dropping the iota da/skw[4] (since the words in common use which end in -kw do not tend to have a diphthong); with reduplication dida/skw ["I teach"],[5] and from this [the noun] dida/skalos ["teacher"].[6]

Repeated at

[1] The verb
da/w or (as here)
dai/w "learn" actually occurs only in the aorist active, future middle, and perfect active and middle. It also has a reduplicated aorist active with causal force
de/dae "he taught" (four times in
Homer,
Odyssey).
[2] This could be the future of
dai/numi "give a banquet" (cf.
delta 120); it does not occur in the sense of "teach."
[3] Hypothetical verb, unattested outside lexicography.
[4] Also hypothetical and unattested outside lexicography.
[5] cf.
delta 861,
delta 856,
delta 857,
epsilon 232.
[6] cf.
delta 859,
delta 860.
