Notes
- Same entry, according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon (1910). The headword is neuter singular of this adjective, evidently quoted from somewhere.
The only other occurrence of any form of this word is in Lucian, Lexiphanes 1 (in the neuter accusative plural) and in commentary thereto.
For ear-wax cf generally under kappa 2803.
