Notes (2)
- 1Likewise or similarly in other lexica; see the references at Photius kappa74 Theodoridis. The headword is aorist infinitive of the verb
kairofulakei=n ; cf. generally kappa 1192 and phi 826. It is presumably quoted from somewhere (but, if so, not the quotation given, which uses the present infinitive). ↩ - 2Quotation (and personnel) unidentifiable. ↩
