Notes (2)
- The headword, a present participle in the masculine nominative singular, is presumably extracted from the quotation given (on which see n.2 below).
- 1Same or similar glossing in other lexica; references at Photius pi274 Theodoridis. ↩
- 2Probably, as Adler's note suggests ('cf.'), an approximation of Polybius 21.15.6 (L. Cornelius Scipio on Heraclides, envoy of King Antiochus III), where these two verbs are present infinitives rather than participles:
a)gnoei=n au)to\n e)/fh kai\ parapai/ein o(losxerw=s . See web address 1. ↩
