[1] Comparably in syntactical lexica. (The quotation appended -- n. 3 below -- illustrates this.)
[2] Same glossing in Photius and other lexica. The headword participle, masculine nominative singular, must be quoted from somewhere. (Extant instances are few and late.)
[3] Addendum in mss GIM only, Adler reports. She suggests that the quotation may be from Symeon Metaphrastes; cf. in any event under alpha 2212.
