Notes
- For this verb, with its implications of not merely growing up but reaching peak condition, see also eta 13, eta 14, eta 19, and eta 26.
The present entry glosses its present participle, feminine nominative singular, quoted from Homer, Odyssey 5.69 (of a vine); see the scholia there, and also Hesychius eta23.
