Headword: *)epiqh/khsa
Adler number: epsilon,2333
Translated headword: I played the ape
Vetting Status: high
Translation:

Aristophanes [writes]: "I played the ape a little bit."[1]

Greek Original:

*)epiqh/khsa: *)aristofa/nhs: u(po/ ti mikro\n e)piqh/khsa.

Note:

[1] Aristophanes, Wasps 1290 (web address 1); more fully at sigma 687. In both the headword and the quotation Aristophanes' e)piqh/kisa (from piqhki/zw) is misspelled as e)piqh/khsa, probably a dictation error as the two forms would be homophonous in the Suda's day.
