Betacode

*)anakrouo/meqa: oi(=on a)naprooimiazo/meqa.

Notes

For this verb in another sense see alpha 1921.
The present headword has the same gloss in Photius and ps.-Zonaras and also in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon. Theodoridis on Photius s.v. notes (without adopting) Reizenstein's attractive suggestion that it should actually be subjunctive a)nakrouw/meqa (Plato, Philebus 13D).
