Headword:
*nasto/n
Adler number: nu,44
Translated headword: firm
Vetting Status: high
Translation: [sc. Something] thick, chunky, full, not having anything light [about it].[1]
It differs from 'loose'.
For 'loose' [means something] scarce, porous, or ascending, like a flame.
Because it comes from the [phrase]
mh\ e(/n ei)=nai ["not being one"].
But
nastos as a masculine [is] a flatcake, or hot bread [made] with olive-oil.
Aristophanes in
Wealth [writes]: "for a well-baked flatcake used to come to you".[2]
And such [is]
nasto/s with oxytone accent; its base-form [is]
na/sasqai in the
Odyssey.[3] However,
*na/stos [pronounced] with barytone accent [sc. with no accent on the final syllable] [is] a city of Thrace, also called Nestos.[4]

Notes:
On the initial distinction here see already
mu 157 (and
mu 158). See also
nu 177 (end).
[1] Likewise or similarly in other lexica: see the references at
Photius nu30 Theodoridis, where the editor suggests that the headword -- neuter singular of this adjective -- is extracted from Basil of
Caesarea,
Homilies on the Hexameron 3.4 (PG 29.60d) or 9.8 (PG 29.72b). There are numerous alternatives, however.
[2]
Aristophanes,
Plutus [
Wealth] 1142, with scholion.
[3] Though the aorist infinitive
na/sasqai as such does not occur in the work, the passage in question here is presumably
Homer,
Odyssey 21.122,
a)mfi\ de\ gai=an e)/nace (where
e)/nace is the aorist of
na/ssw).
[4] cf.
Stephanus of
Byzantium s.v., citing
Apollodorus (FGrH 244 F320). Otherwise unattested.
