Greek original · Adler’s text

Οἰκοπορεῖα· τὰ κατ' οἰκίαν σκεύη.

Betacode
*oi)koporei=a: ta\ kat' oi)ki/an skeu/h. 

Notes

  1. Headword and gloss reappear, together, in Eustathius' Commentary on the Odyssey (on the phrase ei)s oi)=kon in Homer, Odyssey 1.356).
    The headword is otherwise unattested in this form, oi)koporei=a. Photius' Lexicon (omicron99 Theodoridis) has oi)kuporei=a, which if anything is worse; and the scholarly consensus is that it should actually be oi)khth/ria (as in Hesychius omicron247, which Latte regards as quoted from Alcaeus).
