Notes:
The headword is pesent participle, masculine nominative singular, of
a)loia/w; probably extracted from the first quotation given.
[1] cf.
alpha 1412.
[2] Tentatively attributed by Adler to
Aelian; however, as she notes,
Dionysius of Halicarnassus,
Roman Antiquities 1.39.4 on Heracles is very similar.
[3] From the
scholia to
Homer,
Iliad 9.568.
[4] Feminine, either participle or adjective; see already
alpha 1412, and cf.
eta 255.
[5]
Homer,
Iliad 4.522 (web address 1); see also
alpha 3157.
[6] Again at
alpha 1436; see also
alpha 1427. The verb
a)lu/w is pronounced the same as
a)loiw= in Byzantine pronunciation, except for the accent. To call a verb "barytone" is to say that it is not accented on the last syllable; in our terms, it is not a contract verb.
