Notes

  1. The headword (which must be quoted from somewhere) is masculine accusative singular or neuter nominative/accusative singular of this adjective (which is LSJ s.v. krau=ros (B), i.e. not connected with kappa 2352). Same glossing, variously,in other lexica, and cf. also Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon s.v. krauro/teron.
