[Meaning] something gluttonous, and sweet.
Or gluey.
Also [sc. attested is the masculine] gli/sxros, [meaning] parsimonious,[1] miserly, completely filthy.[2]
"But I proved to be a person hard for such people to get rid of, and I still stuck like glue[3] to the truth, since I had truly become rich in broad daylight."[4]
"He came down out of lands that were stingy and that provided insufficient means to live from even in peacetime."[5] That is providing little in the way of nourishment.
The Attic authors used to use gli/sxron in reference to misfortune. Aristophanes in Peace [writes]: "o greedy one, do you see that I no longer appear to you to be totally foul?"[6] Meaning o acquisitive one; from the [verb] gli/xesqai ["to cling"]. This is addressed to Hermes. And elsewhere Aristophanes in Peace: "nevertheless they jerk just like greedy doggies tearing apart a carcasse."[7]
And Arrian [writes]: "and they stingily provided the army with supplies."[8] Meaning parsimoniously.
