[Meaning something] cheap, poor. "And with a barley-cake a little penurious drama."[1]
*penixrale/on: eu)tele/s, penixro/n. kai\ yaistw=| o)li/gon dra=ma penixrale/on.
The headword, neuter singular of this adjective (a variant of the second gloss), is presumably extracted from the quotation given, its only attestation outside the Suda.
[1] A garbled quotation of
Greek Anthology 6.190.6 (
Gaetulicus), where the original has
kai\ yaistw=n o)li/gwn dra=gma penixrale/on ("and a penurious handful of a few barley cakes"); more accurately at
psi 35.
