Translation

[me/mortai means the same as] memoi/ratai.

Greek original · Adler’s text

Μέμορται· μεμοίραται.

Betacode
*me/mortai: memoi/ratai. 

Notes

  1. Same entry in Photius (mu264 Theodoridis). The headword, otherwise unattested but presumably quoted from somewhere, is a perfect middle/passive form (third person singular) from mei/romai. Grammarians cite me/morqai as an infinitive. The earlier form was ei(/martai, from *se-smrtai.
    cf. mu 576, mu 577; and more generally epsiloniota 142, epsiloniota 143, epsiloniota 144.
