Notes (1)
- The headword, presumably extracted from the quotation, is present participle, masculine nominative singular, of
farma/ttw /farma/ssw (cf. phi 108, also phi 101). - 1Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable. It is probable that the verb is used here figuratively. ↩
