ΔΑΙ-, “I divide, perf. pass. 3 pers. pl. Ionic δεδαίαται, with derivative forms, as from a dental verb, 1 aor. mid. ἐδασσάμην, perf. pass. (in Homer) δέδασται; hence δαίνυμι, “I give to eat,” fut. δαίσω, 1 aor. ἔδαισα, aor. part. pass. δαισθείς. We have also a by-form δατέομαι, 1 aor. δατέασθαι.

gram

Δέατο*, “ it appeared” (Hom. Od. VI. 242), also δοάσσετο as aor. with the subj. δοάσσεται instead of δοάσσηται. The old marians, who read δόατο for δέατο, derived this form from δοιάζω, “I doubt,” and Apollonius Rhodius uses other forms in this personal signification, as the opt. aor. δοάσσαι (III. 955), and the indic. δοάσσατο (ΙΙΙ. 770).

Δεδίσκομαι* οι δειδίσκομαι, “I welcome,” connected with

Δέχομαι, “ I hold out my hand to take or receive,” Ionic δέκομαι, syncopated aor. ἔδεκτο, δέχθαι. Perf. pass. part. δεδεγμένος and δεδοκημένος, “ watching,” “lurking.” Same root as δείκ-νν-μι and δοκ-έω.

Δέω, “ I bind,” paulo-post fut. as simple fut. δεδήσομαι. From an obsolete δίδημι we have δίδη as 3 pers. sing. imp. (Hom. Il. XI. 105), and διδέασι as 3 pers. pl. pres. (Xen. Anab. v. 8, § 24).

Ἐέλδομαι, “I wish,” for ἔλδομαι. Similarly ἔελμαι for εἴλω, ἐέλπομαι for ἔλπομαι, ἐέργω for εἴργω.
