Translation

[Meaning he/she/it] has cast off, escaped.¹

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ἐκλελάκτικεν· ἀποβέβληκεν, ἀπέφυγεν.

Betacode

*)eklela/ktiken: a)pobe/blhken, a)pe/fugen.

Notes (1)

The headword is perfect indicative active, third person singular, of the verb e)klakti/zw. It is quoted from Menander fr. 20 K.-A (16 Koerte), from the Halieus. See in full under alpha 2606: e)klela/ktiken o( xrhsto\s h(mi=n moi=xos, a)ll' a)nta/llagos, "he has kicked out, our real seducer, but a substitute...". Same quotation in Orus' Attic Lexicon 24, ps.-Zonaras 667.14.
The meaning is also attested in Procopius, On the Wars of Justinian 1.24.14, quoted under iota 469.
1There is perhaps an inconsistency between the second gloss a)pe/fugen and the first a)pobe/blhken, but it could be determined by the transitive meaning ("kicking out") the verb lakti/zw has in some instances.
