Ῥήγνυται· διαιρεῖται, καὶ διακόπτεται. καὶ Ῥήγνυσιν, ἀντὶ τοῦ προΐησιν, ἐκπέμπει. Αἰλιανός· καὶ ῥήγνυσι φωνὴν ἱκέτιν ἐξ αὐτῆς ἐκβιασθεὶς τῆς ὀδύνης. καὶ Ῥηγνύμενον, διαρρησσόμενον. καὶ Ῥήγνυσκε, διέρρησσε.

Notes (5)

  1. For other forms of r(h/gnumi, see rho 9, rho 58, rho 137, rho 140.
  2. 1The headword is third person singular, present indicative middle/passive, of r(h/gnumi. Same glossing in Hesychius (rho245) and Photius (rho90 Theodoridis); similar in the scholia to Oppian, Halieutica 2.401, from where the headword is probably quoted. ↩
  3. 2Third person singular, present indicative active, of r(h/gnumi, perhaps (though not necessarily) extracted from the quotation which follows; cf. rho 140, and ps.-Zonaras. ↩
  4. 3Aelian fr. 44d Domingo-Forasté (part of 41 Hercher). ↩
  5. 4Present middle/passive participle of r(h/gnumi, neuter nominative/accusative singular or masculine accusative singular. Cf. Moeris 208.28 and a scholion on Homer, Iliad 4.425. ↩
  6. 5Third person singular, imperfect, of the frequentative verb r(hgnu/skw, related to r(h/gnumi; quoted from Homer, Iliad 7.141. Similarly glossed by Hesychius and ps.-Zonaras. ↩
