[Meaning] away from Megara.
Greek original · Adler’s text
Μεγαρόθεν· ἀπὸ τῶν Μεγάρων.
Betacode
*megaro/qen: a)po\ tw=n *mega/rwn.
Notes
- Same entry, according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon.
The headword, a single word in the Greek, is an adverbial form with the suffix-qen . It is presumably quoted from somewhere; perhaps from Aristophanes, Wasps 57, though there are numerous other possibilities.
