Headword:
*eu)=te
Adler number: epsilon,3765
Translated headword: as
Vetting Status: high
Translation: It is both temporal, meaning 'when', and correlative, comparable to [h)u/+te ('like unto')].[1] "Like unto an ox in the herd, a bull."[2] 'Ox' [is] the generic term, but 'bull' the specific.
Greek Original:*eu)=te: e)/sti kai\ xroniko/n, a)nti\ tou= h(ni/ka, kai\ o(moiwmatiko/n, a)nalogou=n tw=| [h)u/+te]. h)u/+te bou=s a)ge/lhfi tau=ros. bou=s me\n genikw=s, tau=ros de\ i)dikw=s.
Notes:
Both the present headword and its near-synonym
h)u/+te (supplied here, at the end of the first sentence, by Kuster) are primarily epic, and the material in the entry seems to be drawn chiefly if not exclusively from commentary on
Homer.
[1] cf.
scholia to
Homer,
Iliad 3.10 and 6.515.
[2] An abridgement of
Homer,
Iliad 2.480, with comments following from the
scholia. Oddly, the passage illustrates the usage of
h)u+/te, rather than the headword, and the comments reproduced here pertain to neither directly.
