[Meaning he/she/it] is angry/mad.
*margai/nei: mai/netai.
The headword is third person singular, present indicative active, of the verb
margai/nw.
Same entry in other lexica (see the references at
Photius mu107 Theodoridis), beginning with
Hesychius mu260, and cf. also the
scholia to
Homer,
Iliad 5.882, where the infinitive
margai/nein occurs and is glossed with
mai/nesqai.
The only literary instance of the word as cited (which is perhaps unlikely to underlie
Hesychius) is Gregory of Nazianzus,
Poems about himself (
Carmina de se ipso) PG 37.1315.12.
