Betacode
*)ape/docen: a)nti\ tou= pw=s ou)k e)/docen.
Notes
- Same entry in Photius and elsewhere, though there without the intrusive
pw=s before theou)k ; the gloss should read 'Meaning: it did not seem good'.
The headword must be quoted from somewhere: there are instances in Herodotus, Xenophon, Pausanias and Philostratus.
Impersonala)pe/docen is the opposite ofe)/docen as a decision-making formula: see LSJ s.v.a)podokei= .
