Notes (1)

  1. The headword is neuter nominative/accusative singular of fau=los (cf. phi 141, phi 142, phi 143), presumably extracted from somewhere.
    For the glosses, cf. phi 519 and a scholion on Aristophanes, Peace 96 (where flau=ron [sic] occurs).
  2. 1Kuster conjectured flau=ron "trivial" instead of flu/aron. ↩
