Translation
[*planu/ttomen means the same as] planw/meqa . It is a comic derivation. Aristophanes [uses it] in Birds.
Greek original · Adler’s text
Πλανύττομεν· πλανώμεθα. κωμικῶς παρῆκται. Ἀριστοφάνης Ὄρνισι.
Betacode
*planu/ttomen: planw/meqa. kwmikw=s parh=ktai. *)aristofa/nhs *)/ornisi.
Notes
- From a scholion on Aristophanes, Birds 3 (web address 1), where the headword uniquely occurs. (Hesychius [pi2456] and Photius [pi915 Theodoridis] have parallel but more generalised entries for, respectively, the present participle and the present infinitive.)
