[*] 518. (II) Presents in -αινω and -αιρω are formed from verb-stems in -αν and -αρ, the [ιγλιδε] being thrown back to unite with the vowel of the verb-stem (111). Thus, φαίνω show (φαν-[ιγλιδε]ω), ὀνομαίνω name (ὀνομαν-[ιγλιδε]ω), χαίρω rejoice (χαρ-[ιγλιδε]ω). a. Many verbs add -[ιγλιδε]ω to the weak form of the stem, as ὀνομαίν-ω for ὀνομαν-[ιγλιδε]ω from ὀνομṇ-[ιγλιδε]ω, cp. nomen (35 b). b. Hom. has κυ_δαίνω and κυ_δάνω honour, μελαίνω blacken and μελάνω grow black. ὀλισθαίνω slip is late for ὀλισθάνω. c. The ending αινω has been attached, by analogy, in θερμαίνω make hot, etc. (620 III, 866.7). Likewise -υ_νω (519) in poetic ἀρτύ_νω prepare, parallel to ἀρτύ_ω (in composition), by analogy to βαρύ_νω weigh down, ἡδύ_νω sweeten.
