[Meaning] roads, from [the verb] to route. Aristophanes [writes]: "and the women along the routes, waylaying those [coming] from dinner, will say: 'Come to my place, there is a beautiful girl here.'"1

Δίοδοι· αἱ ὁδοί, ἀπὸ τοῦ διοδεύειν. Ἀριστοφάνης· αἱ δὲ γυναῖκες κατὰ τὰς διόδους προσπίπτουσαι τοῖς ἀπὸ τοῦ δείπνου, τάδε λέξουσι· δεῦρο παρ' ἡμᾶς, ἐνθάδε μεῖραξ ἔσθ' ὡραία.
