Phrygian: ad

Part of speech: preposition (+ dat.)

Meaning: `to, at'

Attested forms:

   at + Ti(e/h) 12 39 45 51 54 56-7 61-2 65 76-7 80 85-6 94 101 106; [a]t Ti 11; [at] Ti 72; [a]t· [Ti] 108; a + Ti(e/h) 7 67 87 102-3; [a] Tie 102; a T[ie] 25;
ak ke oi 33 76, a ke oi 7 (?) `and to him' ( Lubotsky 1989b: 150);
ak koltah (?) {1} 30;
ad ateama·j 14 (?) {2};
a· ² + Kaliyay (PN) Vez 6 ( Neumann 1997: 22)

Contexts:

   The malediction formula is: tit tetikmenoj at Ti(e) adeitou (with some insignificant variants; cf. especially 62. at Tih ke dewj ke tit tetikmenoj eitou).
... ak ke oi bekoj akkaloj ti dregroun eitou 33, 76
7. [ioj ni semou]n knoumani kaka[-/---a·]en deoj ke zem[eloj/---]a ke oi eiroi a tie tit t[e/tikmenoi eitt]nou
14. [i]oj ni semoun kno/[u]m·anei kakin ada·/ket ain' ad ateama·j ti tetikmenoj aj· tian [eit]o·u
Vez 6. nidu·s-a·kal·iyay karatu panato andop opost·o·i·s· kl·a·n·iv

Etymological comments: For the analysis of the formulae see Heubeck 1958, Lubotsky 1989a, Brixhe 1997: 42ff. The preverb / preposition corresponds to Lat. ad, etc. < PIE *h2ed. Note that this preverb is absent in Greek.

Footnotes: {1} The context is unclear. {2} Lubotsky 1989a: 84, cf. further Brixhe 1997: 47. On the other hand, Brixhe 1978b: 4 suggested to consider ad a case of dittography, which seems attractive.

Phrygian: ad

Part of speech: preverb

Attested forms: NPhr. verbs addaket; abberet; adeitou; atetikmenoj

See also: see s.v. da-, ber-, i-, tetikmeno-

Phrygian: addaket

See also: see s.v. ad and da-

Phrygian: adeitou

See also: see s.v. ad and i-

Phrygian: adithrera-

Part of speech: m.

Meaning: PN

Attested forms: nom.sg. adiqrerak (+ xeuneoi) 31

Contexts: 31. aj semoun knouman adiqrerak / xeuneoi ddikej eian ...

Etymological comments: Whereas the previous scholarship (including Haas 1966 and Kowal 1984) took adiqrerak as a part of the grave, Neumann 1986: 82, with good arguments, assumes a PN Adiqreraj, most probably of a Greek origin (Adi- may stay for ¢nt…). As far as the final consonant is concerned, Neumann assumes a mistake of the scribe, which is not very likely, since S has a classical shape with four segments, a turned M ( Brixhe 1999: 298). I am therefore inclined to follow Orel's view ( Orel 1997: 332) that -k is due to sandhi -s k- > -k k- (more examples of this sandhi are found in inscription 116).

Phrygian: adoikavo-

Part of speech: m.

Meaning: PN, title?

Attested forms:

   nom.sg. [a]d·oikavos {1} G-146; [a]d·oikav·[os] {2} G-153 (complete inscr.);
dat.sg. adoikavoi G-02A

Contexts: G-02 A. agart·ioi : iktes : adoikavoi B. iosoporokitis-¢ C. kakoioitovo : podaska[?]

Etymological comments: In G-02, adoikavoi seems to be the title or a second name of agartios. For the suffix see s.v. proitavo-. No etymology known.

Footnotes: {1} Brixhe - Lejeune 1984 give ]-oikavos. {2} Brixhe - Lejeune 1984 give ]d·oika-[.

Phrygian: ae

Part of speech: particle (?)

Attested forms: ae M-01f; ²ae W-09

Contexts:

   M-01f [-¢-]as : tuav¢e/niy : ae : esuryoyoy: totin : e·d·ae·[s]
W-09 si|eto ²ae / alus

Etymological comments: The function of this element is unclear. On the one hand, it is reminiscent of aey (see s.v.), which is likely to be a form of the verb `to be', but the position and function seem different ( Lubotsky 1988a: 18). Orel 1997: 21, however, derives ae as 2sg. and aey as 3sg. aor. of the root a-, according to him `to set, make sit, enthrone' or `to sit, ascend the throne' (Gr. Îmai).
