Notes:
Abridged from Harpokration s.v., commenting on Isaeus 8.3 (web address 1). It is clearer there than here that the headword is the demotikon, in the accusative case, not the name of the deme itself, Phlya.
On Euripides, see generally epsilon 3695; and for the demotikon, cf. Aristophanes, Wasps 234.
