Etymology 3
Probably a verbalization of νῆσαι (nêsai), itself perhaps a contracted form of νηῆσαι (nēêsai), of unknown origin; the chronology and morphological development of the word and its relatives is similarly unclear.[1]

Etymology 4
Abstracted from νέωτα (néōta, “next year”), traditionally taken as a compound of νέος (néos, “new”) + ἔτος (étos, “year”), literally “new year” > "next year"; however, the -ω- (-ō-) remains difficult to explain. Szemerenyi proposes that it arises from a dative form of νέος (néos).[1]
Adverb
νέω • (néō)
Synonyms
- (next year): εἰς νέωτα (eis néōta)
