Notes:
The headword is third person singular, present indicative active, of
e)xqrai/nw. It must be quoted from somewhere; extant possibilities are all post-classical.
[1] Comparably in syntactical lexica.
[2] From a scholion on
Aristophanes,
Peace 129, where Aesop's fable on the dung-beetle is mentioned (and this aorist infinitive of
e)xqreu/w -- not the headword verb -- occurs).
