Notes (1)
- The headword, evidently extracted from somewhere, is the present indicative active, third person singular, of the verb
newteri/zw , I innovate; see LSJ s.v., and cf. nu 244, and nu 245. - 1The headword is identically glossed in the Synagoge, Photius' Lexicon (nu170 Theodoridis), Hesychius nu431, and ps.-Zonaras 1395.8; cf. Lexica Segueriana 308.13. Adler also cites Boysen's Lexicon Seguerianum. ↩
