[Meaning] completing something on behalf of another for a teacher.
*didaca/menos: tele/sas ti u(pe\r e(te/rou didaska/lw|.
Same entry in
Timaeus'
Platonic Lexicon, compiled at some time between the first and the fourth centuries CE. Similar one, later, in
Photius,
Lexicon delta520, though the glossing there is corrupted into
tele/sas ti u(pe/rteron didaska/lou. (The Suda's
didaska/lw| is not in ms T, Adler reports, and in G and I seems to start a new entry, but the text she prints is surely the correct one.)
For a discussion of the middle voice of
dida/skw, see
delta 857. The present headword is its aorist participle, in the masculine nominative singular. It is presumably quoted from somewhere;
didaca/menos itself does not occur in the extant works of
Plato, though see
Republic 467E for
didacame/nous and
Menexenus 238B for
didaca/menoi; alternatively (since
Timaeus did not in fact confine himself to
Plato), from another author.
