Notes

  1. The headword is present middle/passive participle, masculine nominative singular, of kna/w. The definition of the participle occurs already in Herodian, Partitions p.72 Boissonade; and the participle itself is perhaps quoted from Timocles fr. 19 Kassel-Austin (222b CGFP), line 5.
    See also kappa 1856, kappa 1857.
