Greek display:    

Headword: *)eretmw=sai
Adler number: epsilon,2938
Translated headword: to set to row
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] to pull an oar.
Greek Original:
*)eretmw=sai: kwphlath=sai.
Notes:
Same entry, according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon. The headword is aorist active infinitive of the verb e)retmo/w. It must be quoted from somewhere -- very probably Euripides, Medea 4, though if so the glossing does not properly convey the transitive sense employed there (e)retmw=sai xe/ras; cf. LSJ s.v.). A scholiast to the line does better with kw/pais kaqopli/sai, as does Hesychius epsilon5743 (kw/pais a(rmo/sai).
cf. epsilon 2933, epsilon 2937.
