Translation

[Meaning] needing few [things]. Also [sc. attested is] o)ligodei/a [used] likewise.

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ὀλιγοδεΐα· τὸ ὀλίγων δεῖσθαι. καὶ Ὀλιγοδεία ὁμοίως.

*)oligodei/+a: to\ o)li/gwn dei=sqai. kai\ *)oligodei/a o(moi/ws. 

Notes

  1. Similarly in ps.-Zonaras and, according to Adler, the Ambrosian Lexicon. The second headword differs from the first only in having the epsiloniota as a diphthong instead of in diaeresis.
    See already under beta 524; and cf. generally omicron 155.
