[Meaning he/she/it] boasts.
*eu)/xetai: kauxa=tai.
The headword is third person singular, present indicative, of the verb
eu)/xomai. It is glossed here as in a scholion on
Homer,
Iliad 1.91 (web address 1, from where it has evidently been quoted); and cf. generally
epsilon 3829,
epsilon 3830.
In epic,
eu)/xomai often means "boast, profess loudly"; in later Greek, it usually means "pray" or "vow" (see LSJ s.v.); cf.
epsilon 3828 (and
epsilon 3819).
