Translation

[Used] with a dative. But it also occurs with an accusative: "unless one might blame the doctor as well."¹
"Why do you blame us as if [we were] responsible?"²

Greek original · Adler’s text

Αἰτιῶμαι. δοτικῇ. ἔστιν δὲ καὶ αἰτιατικῇ· εἰ μὴ καὶ τὸν ἰατρὸν αἰτιῷτό τις. τί ἡμῖν αἰτιᾷ ὡς αἰτίοις.

Notes (2)

Likewise or similarly in syntactical lexica.
Accusative is regular, in fact: see LSJ s.v.
1This phrase occurs in two of the Orations of Gregory of Nazianzus, nos. 38 (PG 36,328) and 45 (PG 36.660). ↩
2Quotation (illustrating the dative) unidentifiable.
