Betacode
*laqrai/ws kai\ *laqrhda\ kai\ *laqrhdo/n: a)nti\ tou= kru/fa.
Notes
- The lexicographer presents three adverbs formed on the base
laqr- . (The first is commonplace; the second otherwise attested only in Lucian, Calumniae non temere credendum 21; for the third cf. the quotation in rho 167 = sigma 460.)
For the formation of adverbs see generally Smyth (below) pp. 99-102, sections 341-46, and web address 1 below. See also LSJ s.v.la/qra at web address 2.
