[1] Likewise or similarly in other lexica: see the references at Photius mu614 Theodoridis. The headword is aorist active participle of mu/w, masculine (or neuter) genitive singular. It must be quoted from somewhere, probably (as is routinely supposed) Euripides, Medea 1183. For the gloss cf. mu 1425 et al.
