Notes (2)
- The unglossed headword is the superlative form of the adjective
po/rimos (for which cf. pi 2064), here in the (presumably paradigmatic) masculine nominative singular. - 1Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable. It contains the feminine singular accusative form of the headword. ↩
- 2A verb,
pori/zw , related to the headword (cf. pi 2063). This form of it (third person plural, future indicative middle, post-classical form) is also, already, in Hesychius pi3037, glossed there withperipoih/sontai "they will acquire". Otherwise it is only attested twice prior to the Suda: John Chrysostom, To the People of Antioch PG 49.52.33, and Procopius, Secret History 24.11; and only the first of these predates Hesychius. ↩
