Notes:
[1] The headword -- presumably extracted from the quotation given -- is imperfect, third person singular, of the verb
u(pokine/w; see also under
delta 1012. The present gloss does not seem to fit it very well.
[1] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the
Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable.
Keywords: biography; definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; ethics
