[Meaning] large-eyed, or large-voiced.
The nominative [is] eu)ru/wy.[1]
*eu)ru/opa: megalo/fqalmon, h)\ megalo/fwnon. h( eu)qei=a eu)ru/wy.
The headword is found mainly (from
Homer onwards) as an epithet of Zeus. This entry hedges its bets between the two possible etymologies of it (see LSJ s.v.); modern scholarship has not eliminated either but tends to the first.
[1] In
Homer and elsewhere the present headword itself,
eu)ru/opa, is sometimes used as a nominative (and vocative); for an instance see under
alpha 2371 =
tau 1133; but it is also used as an accusative (as indeed is implicit in the glosses here), theoretically implying the nominative given (only) here.
