Notes (2)

  1. The headword is a hypothetical contract-verb equivalent of o)ni/nhmi (omicron 364). It is attested in the active, as here, only in lexicography and grammarians; but forms of a middle/passive o)ne/omai occur twice (LSJ s.v. o)ni/nhmi).
  2. 1Similar entries in syntactical sources. ↩
  3. 2As distinguished from similar-sounding verbs, such as o)/nomai "I blame." Cf. ps.-Herodian; also Heracleides ap. Eustathius, Arcadius, Theognostus. ↩
