Adj. τηλός may be taken as the source whence come the Advbs. τηλοῦ, τηλοῖ, τηλόθι, τηλόθεν, τηλόσε, τηλοτέρω, τηλοτάτω, and Adj. τηλότερος; also τηλύς, whence τήλιστος: a form τῆλυ = τῆλε is recognized by A.D. Pron. 54.28, and occurs in τηλύ-γετος: an Aeol. form πήλυι, cited by Priscian. Inst. 1.6.37, Theognost. Can. 160, is restored in Sapph. 1.6, where however πήλοι, which is v.l. and is recommended by A.D. Adv. 197.15, shd. perh. be read.)

τηλοῦ, adv., wie τῆλε, fern, weitab, in der Ferne oder Fremde ; Hom. u. Hes. oft ; τηλοῦ ἐπʼ Ἀλφειῷ, Il. 11.712 ; auch c. gen., Τροίην τηλοῦ φασιν Ἀχαιΐδος ἔμμεναι αἴης, Od. 13.249, wie 23.68 ; τῶν ἀγρῶν, Ar. Nub. 139 ; τηλοῦ ἀπό τινος, Hes. Th. 204 ; sp.D. Die auch den andern Wörtern τηλόθι, τηλόθεν, τηλόσε u. dem Kompar. u. superl. τηλοτέρω, τηλοτάτω zu Grunde liegende Form τηλός kommt nicht mehr vor ; Apoll.Dysc. nimmt τῆλυ an, das sich in τηλύγετος erhalten habe. Verwandt ist es mit τέλος, vgl. Orion p. 152.4 ; Buttmann Lexil. II p. 201 ; vielleicht auch mit telum. Andere führen es auf τείνω, ΤάΩ zurück.
