Notes:
[1] The primary headword
klhdw/n has the same or similar glossed in other lexica; references at
Photius kappa775 Theodoridis. See also (e.g.)
omicron 321,
omicron 322,
omicron 615,
omicron 726,
omicron 730, under
delta 1364, and generally Donald Lateiner, "Signifying names and other ominous accidental utterances in classical historiography",
Greek, Roman & Byzantine Studies 45 (2005) 35-57.
[2] cf. George the Monk,
Chronicon 237.14, glossing the singular of the noun with this phrase. Presumably, therefore, the plural comes from somewhere else; perhaps
Isaiah 2.6
LXX. See anyway under
pi 465.
