I was not saying that the a- was the privative prefix, although it makes no less sense than the combing prefix. I was simply saying, along with others, that is looks probable that knēstis and aknēstis are related.
Here's what Chatraine has to say:I'll see if I can chase down the references cited.Quote:Le mot à rapprocher de κνηστις «râpe à fromage», cf. sous -κναιω, et on admet que les deux termes sont identiques, cf. Bechtel, Gl. 1, 72, Wackernagel, Gl. 2, 1, Bechtel Lexilogus 27, , enfin Leumann, Hom. Wörter 49: ακνηστις serait né d'une coupure fautive, chez Hom., de κατα ακνηστιν en κατ' ακνηστιν. Toutefois il n'est pas absolument impossible que ακνηστις ait été créé dès la langue hom. pour distinguer les deux mots, l'alpha pouvant être une prothèse.
Ceci n'est pas un seing.
