Not the communal virtue, but the one better than this, which uses the same name, that prevailing over the fury of the soul.¹
But [sc. note the phrase] a)ndrei/a yuxh/ ["manly soul"], with the diphthong [ei], from a)ndrei=os.²

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ἀνδρία· οὐχ ἡ πολιτικὴ ἀρετὴ, ἀλλ' ἡ μείζων ταύτης, τῷ αὐτῷ ὀνόματι χρωμένη, περιγινομένη τοῦ θυμουμένου τῆς ψυχῆς. Ἀνδρεία δὲ ψυχὴ, διὰ διφθόγγου, ἀπὸ τοῦ ἀνδρεῖος.
