Note:
Same entry in other lexica, including Photius (epsilon2477), where Theodoridis obelizes the transmitted headword e)/funto, i.e. notionally the (intransitive) second aorist indicative, third person plural, of the verb fu/w (phi 848), not otherwise attested. He regards the authentic headword as e)/fun: to/, and notes the opinion of S.A. Naber that e)/fun is quoted from Homer, Odyssey 5.481.
