Notes:
Comparable entry, according to Adler, in the
Ambrosian Lexicon (731).
Headword and glossing phrase are in the genitive case. The headword must be quoted from somewhere;
Sophocles proffers two instances (
Oedipus Tyrannus 1513,
Philoctetes 1099), but neither lends itself to the specificity of the glossing phrase.
For the comparative
lwi/+wn see also
lambda 726,
lambda 728.
Keywords: definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; rhetoric; tragedy
