"δικεῖν" meaning in Ancient Greek

See δικεῖν in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Verb

IPA: /di.kêːn/, /ðiˈcin/, /ðiˈcin/, /di.kêːn/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /diˈkin/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ðiˈcin/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ðiˈcin/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ðiˈcin/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: From an unattested *δίκω (*díkō), of uncertain origin: * Beekes takes the word as Pre-Greek, perhaps because of a lack of a clear Indo-European etymology as well as the related δίκτυον (díktuon, “fishing net”) being difficult to reconcile as Indo-European. * Brugmann and Gonda connect the word to δείκνῡμῐ (deíknūmi, “to point out, display”), which Beekes rejects on semantic grounds. * Rix derives the word from a Proto-Indo-European *deyḱ- (“to throw”), comparing Khotanese [script needed] (dīśś-, “to throw”). Beekes appears to consider this possible, but prefers the Pre-Greek derivation.

Beekes appears to consider this possible, but prefers the Pre-Greek derivation.",
