πίπτω

Ancient Greek

Alternative forms

Etymology

From Proto-Hellenic *píptō, from Proto-Indo-European *pípth₂-, reduplicated present from *peth₂- (“to fall; to fly”).[1]

For an unknown reason, the iota is long, as is apparent from the imperative πῖπτε (not **πῐ́πτε (**pĭ́pte)). Cognate with Sanskrit पापतीति (pā́patīti).[1]
