Notes
- The headword (which must be quoted from somewhere) is masculine accusative singular of the comparative of the poetic adjective
polufradh/s (which Hesiod uses in the dative plural at Theogony 494). Same glossing in the Synagoge and Photius; Hesychius, earlier, glosses withsunetw/teron, logiw/teron, polukerde/steron .
