[Meaning something that is] delicate.
*)iano/krokon: to\ lepto/n.
Neuter singular of this adjective, presumably quoted from somewhere.
Hesychius iota61 has neuter plurals, the headword one -- albeit with rough breathing -- reckoned to come from
Alcman (fr. 177 sub-fr.1.2); cf.
iota 36.
The first element of the compound could (according to LSJ) be a dialectal variant of
e(ano/s (cf.
epsilon 8,
epsiloniota 9). The second is probably related to the verb
kre/kw "weave."
