Σκέπτομαι, “ I consider,” generally in Attic takes its pres. and imperf. from σκοπέω, but fut. σκέψομαι, aor. ἐσκεψάμην, perf. pass. ἔσκεμμαι.

Σμάω, σμήχω, “ I smear,” fut. σμήσω, from σμάω, Ionic σμέω; I aor. pass. ἐσμήχθην. Σμήχω is not Attic in the present.

Σπένδω, “I pour out,” “ I draw forth,” root ΣΠΑΘ- = ΣΠΕΝΘ-, fut. σπείσω, perf. pass. ἔσπεισμαι. Cf. πέπονθα, πείσομαι.

Στερέω and στερίσκω, “I deprive,” in pass. στέρομαι, aor. ἐστέρην, part. στερείς.

Τ.

ΤΑΛ- - ΤΛΑ-, "I bear,” “ dare,” fut. m. τλήσομαι, 1 aor. in Homer ἐτάλασσα, perf. τέτληκα, pl. τέτλαμεν, part. τετληώς in the poets; 2 aor. ἔτλην, τλῆθι, τλῶ, τλαίην, τλῆναι, τλάς (in Homer τέτλαθι, τετλαίην, τετλάναι).

TA-, "I stretch out the hand to," imperat. T. Hence 2 perf. τέταγα and a new pres. τετάγω. From this verb τείνω borrows its perfects τέτακα and τέταμαι. Cf. ΓΕΝ- γέγαα, ΜΕΝ- μέμαα ; and see above (107).

Ταράσσω, “I disturb,” has the by-form θράττω (chiefly in Attic poetry), and the epic perfect τέτρηχα*.

Τέμνω, “I cut, fut. τεμώ, Ionic ταμέω, 2 aor. ἔτεμον, rarely

ἔταμον in Attic, 2 aor. mid. ἐτεμόμην, more frequently ἐταμόμην, perf. τέτμηκα, perf. pass. τέτμημαι.

[ocr errors]

Τεύχω, “ I make ” or “construct,” is regular, τεύξω, ἔτευξα, τέτυγμαι, ἐτύχθην. But although we have τετεύχαται, “ they are made, the active form τέτευχα is also used in a passive sense (above, 347, Obs.). Hence we have the secondary verb τυγχάνω, "I hit the mark," "I light upon," "I am successful in obtaining" or “I happen on a place or person,” “I am somewhere just at a particular time : fut. τεύξομαι, aor. ἔτυχον (epic ἐτύχησα), fut. τετύχηκα. In Pindar τόσσαι is an aor. synonymous with τυχεῖν: cf. τόξον, which contains the same root.

The form τιτύσκομαι unites the meanings of τεύχω and τυγχάνω; for τιτύσκεσθαί τι is “ to make ready something, but τιτύσκεσθαί τινος, “to aim at something."

Τίκτω, “ I bring forth, fut. τέξω, τέξομαι, 2 aor. ἔτεκον, perf.

τέτοκα.

Τίνω, “ I pay,” “ expiate,” fut. τίσω, perf. τέτικα, perf. pass. τέτισμαι, mid. τίνομαι, “ to punish :” τίνω Ionic, τίνω Attic.

TOP-, 66 “ I pierce,” found only in the aor. ἔτορον, τοροῖν.

(2) Τιτρώσκω, “I wound,” from fut. τρώσω, perf. pass. τέτρωμαι, 1 aor. ἐτρώθην, fut. pass. τρωθήσομαι and τρώσομαι.

Τόσσαι*, see τεύχω.

Τρέφω, “I nourish, fut. θρέψω, perf. act. τέτροφα, perf. pass. τέθραμμαι, 1 aor. ἐθρέφθην, 2 aor. ἐτράφην. The 2 aor. ἔτραφον has in Homer a passive sense, as ἔτραφεν, “ he was bred.”

Obs. The forms τέτροφα and τέτραφα are interchanged in this verb and τρέπω, but it seems that the o belongs to τρέφω, and the a to τρέπω, Τρέχω, “ I run,” fut. θρέξομαι, 1 aor. ἔθρεξα rare, More com

monly from ΔΡΑΜ-, fut. δραμοῦμαι, 2 aor. ἔδραμον, perf. act. δεδράμηκα, pass. δεδράμημαι, perf. m. δέδρομα.

Φημί, “ I say,” root ΦΑ-, like ἵστημι ; but the imperfect ἔφην is generally an aorist like εἶπον, the frequentative φάσκω, ἔφασκον

being used to express the continuous act of speaking. In conversations we find the shorter form ἠμί, as in ὦ ημί, παῖ, παῖ, “boy ! boy! I say;” ἦν δ ̓ ἐγώ, “ said I;” ή δ' ός, “ said he,” and in epic writers ή, “ he said.”
