Notes (4)

  1. [The SOL headword is incorrect: it gives the secondary, not the primary, headword of this entry.]
  2. 1Present middle participle of proi+/hmi, masculine nominative singular; same or similar glossing in other lexica; evidently quoted from somewhere; cf. pi 2394, pi 2408, pi 2417, pi 2422, pi 2428. ↩
  3. 2Third person plural, present middle, of the same verb, presumably extracted from the quotation given. ↩
  4. 3cf. Hesychius pi3490. ↩
  5. 4Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpts made for Constantine Porphyrogenitus) unidentifiable. ↩
