Notes
- The headword is third person singular, present indicative, of
r(e/zw ; same or similar glossing in other lexica; evidently extracted from somewhere. (Adler classifies the entry as an Homeric gloss, and if she is right the source will be Homer, Odyssey 22.158; however, there are alternatives in (e.g.) fragments of Pherecrates and Epicharmus.)
See also rho 90, rho 101.
This verb comes from the root *wreg-/werg-, being related to the noune)/rgon and cognate with English "work."
