Translation

[*kakorrh/mwn;] and in the neuter kakorrh=mon.¹.

Greek original · Adler’s text

Κακορρήμων· καὶ οὐδετέρως τὸ κακορρῆμον.

Betacode

*kakorrh/mwn: kai\ ou)dete/rws to\ kakorrh=mon.

Notes (1)

For the meaning "ill-omened" see e.g. Aeschylus, Agamemnon 1155 (accusative plural); and for an instance of the primary headword, masculine, see under alpha 2762.
1Can serve as an adjective in the neuter singular and also (as in the instance Adler flags up, at alpha 4112) as a substantive: "thing of ill-omen".
