Present infinitive of a verb, qo/rnumai, which literally means 'to jump'. Glossed by Hesychius with genna=n, mi/gnusqai, o)xeu/esqai, and spermai/nein ('to engender', 'to have intercourse', 'to mount' and 'to inseminate'). See also the scholia to Nicander, Theriaca 827 (noteworthy enough to be reproduced by Athenaeus), from which the headword is quoted.
