Headword: *)anaqolw/sei
Adler number: alpha,1879
Translated headword: with turbidity
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] with frenzy. Plato in the seventh [book] of Laws [writes]: "so as to make turbid."[1] But properly [it is used] in reference to the cuttle-fish, since its black ink is called qolo/s.[2]
Greek Original:
*)anaqolw/sei: a)natara/cei. *pla/twn *no/mwn e(bdo/mw|: o(/pws a)naqolw/sh|. kuri/ws de\ e)pi\ th=s shpi/as, e)pei\ to\ me/lan au)th=s qolo\s kalei=tai.
Notes:
[1] Plato, Laws 7.824B (web address 1 below), which has o)pw=n a)naqolw/sei. The present version of this misreads o)pw=n ["with turbidity of juices", to poison fish] for o(/pws and is thus obliged to convert the following noun into a verb.
[2] cf. theta 403.
