Betacode
*paiw/neion: r(i/zhs fa/rmakon.
Notes
- Adler reports essentially the same entry (minus 'of a root') in the Ambrosian Lexicon; the corresponding entry in ps.-Zonaras has the gloss
fa/rmakon tou= *pai/wnos ; and Galen has the phraseti paiw/neion fa/rmakon .
See also pi 883, where the headword occurs with a variant spelling also used (Adler reports) in ms G here.
