Headword: *)apo\ ga\r o)lou=mai
Adler number: alpha,3262
Translated headword: for I destroyed will be
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[An example of] hyperbaton: [meaning] for I will be destroyed [a)polou=mai ga/r].[1] Aristophanes [writes]: "for I destroyed will be if I do not learn to ply my tongue."[2]
Greek Original:
*)apo\ ga\r o)lou=mai: u(perbato/n: a)polou=mai ga/r. *)aristofa/nhs: a)po\ ga\r o)lou=mai, mh\ maqw\n glwttostrofei=n.
Notes:
[1] Actually the headword phrase [a)po\ ga\r o)lou=mai] is not an instance of hyperbaton, but of tmesis, in which a prepositional prefix is separated from its verb. Hyperbaton refers to the separation of two words which naturally belong together.
[2] Aristophanes, Clouds 792 (web address 1 below); cf. gamma 305.
