Headword:
*eu)kra/s
Adler number: epsilon,3544
Translated headword: temperate
Vetting Status: high
Translation: Meaning well-mixed [eu)/kratos].
Greek Original:*eu)kra/s: a)nti\ tou= eu)/kratos.
Notes:
The headword adjective, LSJ's
eu)kra/s (A), and its glossing one here are etymologically much more similar in the Greek than they sound in translation.
To judge by the
scholia there (citing
Euripides fr. 197, from the lost
Antiope), the headword is extracted from
Plato,
Critias 112D (where it describes a spring: web address 1). See also
Hesychius (epsilon6939),
Timaeus'
Platonic Lexicon,
Photius'
Lexicon, ps.-
Zonaras, and the
Etymologicum Magnum (claiming the word as a rhetorical one).
See also
Euripides fr. 504 (from the lost
Melanippe);
Greek Anthology 12.105.4 (
Asclepiades).
