[1] The headword, evidently quoted from somewhere, is similarly glossed in the
Platonic Lexicon of
Timaeus, and in
Photius (omicron182 Theodoridis); cf. also the
scholia on
Plato,
Republic 3.391A (where first-person
o)knw= occurs). For this verb see also
omicron 113,
omicron 114,
omicron 116,
omicron 117,
omega 51.

Xenophon,
Anabasis 2.4.22, with the present participle (masculine nominative plural) of the same verb. The passage is quoted again at
upsilon 556.
