ἀμφί [12] (cf. ἀμφίς, ἄμφω): on both sides;the distinction between ἀμφίand περί (‘around’) is of course not always observed; the two words are used together, ὄχθαι δʼ ἀμφὶ περὶ μέγαλ ἴαχον, ‘round about,’ Il. 21.10, but on the other hand are sometimes interchangeable, ἀμφὶ δὲ κῡανέην κάπετον, περὶ δʼ ἕρκος ἔλασσεν| κασσιτέρου, Il. 18.564; cf. Il. 23.561f.—I. adv., on both sides (or ends, or above and below, Il. 6.115), about, around;here belongs the so-called use ‘in tmesi,’ and in many instances where the word seems to govern a subst., it is really adverbial, and the case of the subst. must be explained independently, ἀμφʼ ὀβελοῖσιν ἔπειραν (ὀβ. dat. instr.), ἀμφὶ δὲ χαῖται| ὤμοις άίσσονται (ὤμ. local dat.). In case of an apparent ambiguity of construction the presumption is in favor of adverbial interpretation in Homer.—II. prep., (1) w. gen., about, concerning;ἀμφί τινος μάχεσθαι (Il. 16.825), ἀείδειν (Od. 8.267).— (2) w. dat., (a) local, Il. 2.388, Il. 3.328; ἤριπε δʼ ἀμφ, αὐτῷ, ‘over,’ Il. 4.493; τὴν κτεῖνε ἀμφʼ ἐμοί, ‘near,’ Od. 11.423, Il. 9.470; ἀμφὶ πυρί, ‘on,’ etc.— (b) causal, ‘for,’ ἀμφί τινι ἄλγεα πάσχειν, μάχεσθαι, δικάζεσθαι, εἴρεσθαι (Od. 19.95), ‘as regards’ (Il. 7.408). — (3) w. acc., local, mostly to denote motion or extension in space, ἀμφʼ ἅλα ἔλσαι Ἀχαιούς,Il. 1.409; ἀμφὶ ἄστυ ἔρδειν ἷρά, ‘around in,’ Il. 11.706; οἱ ἀμφὶ Πρίαμον, ‘Priam and his followers.’

ἄν [37] (1): modal adv., indicating a condition; essentially equivalent to κέν, and of less frequent occurrence. The use of ἄνis less exactly defined in Homer than in Attic Greek; besides the regular usages in Attic (viz. in conclusions expressed by the secondary tenses of the ind., and by the opt., or by the inf. representing these, and joined to εἰor relative words, ἐάν, ὅταν, etc., in conditional clauses that take the subjunctive), Homer employs ἄνwith the subj. in independent sentences, and κέ (rarely ἄν) with the fut. indicative. In final clauses the use of ἄνor κέprevails, and is not uncommon even with the opt. in conditions. On the other hand the potential opt. occurs without ἄν (κέ) oftener than in Attic. The following examples will illustrate the most important of these peculiarities of usage:— (1) ἄνw. subj. in independent sentence, οὐκ ἄν τοι χραίσμῃ κίθαρις, ‘perchance the harp may avail thee not,’ Il. 3.54, cf. Il. 1.205.— (2) ἄνw. fut. ind., αὐτὸν δʼ ἂν πύματόν με κύνες.. ἐρύουσι, ἐπεί κέ τις κτλ., ‘me like enough last of all will dogs drag about, after I am slain,” etc., Il. 22.66.— (3) ἄνw. opt. in final clause, σὺ δέ με προΐεις.. ὄφρʼ ἂν ἑλοίμην δῶρα, Od. 24.334.— (4) ἄνw. opt. in condition, στεῦτο γὰρ εὐχόμενος νῑκήσεμεν, εἴπερ ἂν αὐταὶ| Μοῦσαι ἀείδοιεν, Il. 2.597.

The use with verbs ‘in tmesi’ is of course adverbial; likewise when a subst, occurs in a case that defines the adv. (thus showing the transition to a true preposition), ἂν δʼ ἄρα Τηλέμαχος νηὸς βαῖνε (νηόςlocal or part. gen.), Od. 2.416.—II. prep., (1) w. gen., only ἀνὰ νηὸς ἔβην, Od. 9.177, see the remark on Od. 2.416above.— (2) w. dat., upon, upon, Il. 1.15, Il. 15.152, ἀνά τʼ ἀλλήλῃσιν ἔχονται, hold on (close up) ‘to’ one another, Od. 24.8.— (3) w. acc., upto, upthrough, Il. 10.466, Od. 22.132, Il. 22.452; of motion, ἀνάgenerally denotes vaguedirection (up and down, ‘up through,’ ‘throughout’), ἐννῆμαρ μὲν ἀνὰ στρατὸν ὤχετο κῆλα θεοῖο, Il. 1.53, whereas κατάrather indicates motion toward a definite point or end (Il. 1.483, 484); with the idea of motion less prominent, Il. 13.117, 270; of time, ἀνὰ νύκτα,Il. 14.80; βασιλῆας ἀνὰ στόμʼ ἔχων, ‘bandying their names up and down,’ Il. 2.250; ἀνὰ θῡμὸν φρονεῖν, ὁρμαίνειν, θαμβεῖν, ὀίεσθαι,Il. 2.36, Od. 2.156, Od. 4.638; ἀνʼ ἶθύν, ‘straight forward,’ Il. 21.303; following the governed word, νειὸν ἀν(ά), ‘up and down’ the field, Od. 13.32.
