Notes (2)

  1. The headword, evidently extracted from somewhere, is the future indicative active, third person singular (and future indicative middle, second person singular), of the verb o)re/gw, I stretch out, reach (for); cf. omicron 525, and see LSJ s.v. The aorist subjunctive active, third person singular, is yet another form of the headword verb. This last form also has an alternative spelling o)re/ch| which occurs at, among other instances, Homer, Iliad 5.33 (web address 1); this passage or its associated scholion (= D scholia) probably generated the entry.
    Besides omicron 525, cf. generally omicron 524, omicron 526, omicron 527, omicron 528, omicron 530.
  2. 1For this grammatical note, Adler cites as comparanda Syntacticum Laurentianum and Syntacticum Gudianum. ↩
  3. 2The glossing verb forms are the future indicative active, third person singular (and the future indicative middle, second person singular) of the verbs di/dwmi and e)ktei/nw (I give, grant and I stretch out, respectively); see LSJ s.vv; Timaeus, Platonic Lexicon s.v. o)re/cai; and Hesychius omicron1155 s.v. o)re/cei. The headword is similarly glossed in the Synagoge, Lexica Segueriana 320.4, and Photius' Lexicon (omicron454 Theodoridis); these other lexica, however, transmit e)ktei/nei, a present indicative or aorist subjunctive form, as the second gloss; Theodoridis notes that the Suda contributor made the necessary correction himself (suo Marte). ↩
