The [verb that means] I cut [off] the tip/top.
*)akri/zw: to\ a)/kron ko/ptw.
Rare verb derived from
a)/kros (tip, top): LSJ entry at web address 1.
The present glossing is only one of the attested (or possible) senses it can bear: the participle
a)kri/zwn in
Euripides fr. 570 seems to mean "going on tiptoe" (cf, LSJ s.v.); and the
scholia to
Homer,
Iliad 21.12 understand it as "eat off the tops" (cf.
alpha 985).
