*)ama/lqakton: a)ne/ndoton, e(drai=on.

Same entry in Photius. (Hesychius has a similar one for the accusative plural a)malqa/ktous.) The headword -- masculine accusative singular or neuter nominative/accusative singular of this adjective (meaning literally "not to be softened," from the verb malqa/ssw, mu 109) -- is evidently quoted from somewhere.
