*ai(rh/somai: lh/yomai, ske/yomai, bouleu/somai.

Same or similar entry in other lexica. The headword is the future middle of ai(re/w. It must be quoted from somewhere: Latte on Hesychius s.v. and Theodoridis on Photius s.v. suggest the New Testament (Philippians 1.22) or Euripides (Orestes 307), but there are many other possibilities.
