I was on Perseus, checking out what form πρόες (Iliad 1:127) is and it said: "aor imperat act 2nd raw_preverb.
I don't have any idea what 'raw_preverb' means. Can someone tell me please?
Thank you.
raw_preverb

about the a)mp- (<amfi/) of ampe/xw they say "dissimilation elide_preverb"
about the e)n- of e)nba/llein : "poetic raw_preverb"
"raw_preverb" appears also for :
prou)/xousa (= pro+e)/xousa)
proi/sthmi
perie/ballon (but not for periba/llw)
perii/sthmi
"raw_preverb" = non-elided or unaltered although it could have been???

Raw preverb simply means that the combining element hasn't changed phonetically. You're right on there. The case of ἀμπέχω is wholly different. This is explained by Grassmann's law (applicable in Greek and Sanskrit), which states that when two aspirated stops occur in the same word, the first is dissimilated to its unaspirated equivalent. So ἀμφ' + ἔχω produces ἀμπέχω.
Cheers,
