αἶσα
Appearance
Ancient Greek
[edit]Etymology
[edit]From Proto-Indo-European *h₂ey- (“to give, take”), whence also αἰτέω (aitéō, “to ask for, beg”) and *αἶτος (*aîtos, “something given: allotment, share”), + the suffix + -ῐᾰ (-ia). Cognate with Oscan aitis (“part, portion”);[1] likely related to οἶτος (oîtos). For a semantic parallel (from a different root), compare Proto-Germanic *hlutą (“lot; fate”).
