Headword:
*)apourgoi\
gwni/ai
Adler number: alpha,3623
Translated headword: useless corners
Vetting Status: high
Translation: [Meaning] dirty [ones], into which they used to gather the sweepings.
Greek Original:*)apourgoi\ gwni/ai: eu)telei=s, ei)s a(\s ta\ sarw/mata sunh=gon.
Note:
Same entry in
Photius and elsewhere; similar one in
Hesychius, with everything in the accusative plural rather than the nominative. Either way the headword phrase (which must be a quotation) is otherwise unattested; so, even, is the adjective it uses, oddly rendered in LSJ as "used to shoot[?] rubbish".
