A primary verb (perhaps rather akin to the base of {G4474} through the idea of sudden motion); to fling (properly with a quick {toss} thus differing from {G906} which denotes a deliberate hurl; and from τείνω teinō (see in {G1614}) which indicates an extended projection); by {qualification} to deposit (as if a load); by extension to disperse: - cast ({down} {out}) scatter {abroad} throw.
