Headword:
*tetu/fwmai
Adler number: tau,422
Translated headword: I have been deluded, I am demented
Vetting Status: high
Translation: Meaning I am struck by lightening, I am outside of my wits; [sc. the word comes] either from thunder, or from the cudgels brought down upon Typhon, or from the winds called typhoon-like, which of course themselves break off and disperse what is crowded together. For
Alcaeus, too, says: "wrapped altogether in smoke [
e)tu/fws'], he was taken from his wits."[1]

Notes:
For the headword see already
tau 421. The present entry (also in
Photius) follows Harpocration's entry on it, but omits the crucial opening reference:
Demosthenes 18.11 (where D. says that he is
not in such a state).
