Headword: *)aph/|esan
Adler number: alpha,3147
Translated headword: they went away
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] they departed.[1]
Also [sc. attested is the singular] a)ph/|ei ["he/she/it went away"],[2] [meaning] departed, withdrew.
*ei)/w, [meaning] I go,[3] by resolution [becomes] e)i+/w, h)/i+on, h)/i+es, h)/i+ka, h)/i+a, h)i+/ein,[4] and in composition a)phi+/ein, and with contraction a)ph/|ein.[5]
Greek Original:
*)aph/|esan: a)ph/rxonto. kai\ *)aph/|ei, a)ph/rxeto, a)nexw/rei. ei)/w, to\ poreu/omai, dialu/sei e)i/+w, h)/i+on, h)/i+es, h)/i+ka, h)/i+a, h)i/+ein, kai\ e)n sunqe/sei a)phi/+ein, kai\ e)n sunaire/sei a)ph/|ein.
Notes:
[1] Likewise, according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon. The headword must be quoted from somewhere but is far too common for a source to be identified.
[2] Again, evidently, quoted from somewhere (but commonplace).
[3] Occurs as present subjunctive in Sophron the mimographer (fr.48 Kaibel); as indicative, it is a hypothetical thematic equivalent of ei)=mi.
[4] Both h)/i+on and h)/i+a are Homeric forms.
[5] h)/|ein is a classical form: earlier for third person singular, later for first person.
