Translated headword: to show words from bellows
Vetting Status: high
Translation: That is novel and newly-made [words].
Aristophanes [writes]: "to show words both refined and witty all from bellows and from frameworks."[1] For by "from bellows" he is speaking of ones freshly made and as if from the fire,[2] while "from frameworks" suggests what is freshly formed and structured. For a framework [
kinnabos] [is] the form at which modellers and painters look and set up when moulding and painting. Many use [this word].[3]
