Notes:
One of the many Suda entries which differentiate between words indistinguishable (by this period) in pronunciation (although here the accentuation is different).
For the adjective
dhnaio/s (first in
Homer,
Iliad 5.407) see generally LSJ s.v. (As to the glosses, the second element of the opening pair also occurs in
Hesychius and in the
scholia to
Oppian,
Halieutica 4.154, where
dhnaio/n appears; the first element, 'year-long', is mysterious.) See also under
omicron 796 and
chi 208.
For the noun
dh/neon see LSJ s.v.
dh/nea (sic: only the plural is found outside lexicography); and for the gloss cf. the
scholia to
Homer,
Iliad 4.361.
