Translation
It is put together out of the [adjective] gli/sxrou ["wheedling"] and [the notion of] having a controversy and e)pitri/ptou ["needling"]; in effect, able to aggravate. Aristophanes in Clouds [writes]: "nor being dragged off about some needling-wheedling-controversial little affair."
Greek original · Adler’s text
Γλισχραντιλογεξεπιτρίπτου· ἐκ τοῦ γλίσχρου καὶ ἀντιλογίαν ἔχοντος καὶ ἐπιτρίπτου σύγκειται· οἷον τοῦ δυναμένου ἐπιτρῖψαι. Ἀριστοφάνης Νεφέλαις· οὐδ' ἑλκόμενος περὶ πραγματίου γλισχραντιλογεξεπιτρίπτου.
