Notes (2)

  1. 1Adler reports similar entries in the Ambrosian Lexicon. ↩
  2. 2Literally, having someone's nose turned up at you. Same gloss in Photius' Lexicon (rho129 Theodoridis); the participle itself is evidently quoted from somewhere. (For a medical sense of the word, see theta 171, repeated at phi 505.) ↩
