- ε590Ἐκ πολλοῦfrom a great [time], from long ago[1] Likewise in ps.-Zonaras. The headword phrase is probably extracted from the quotation given (though ps.-Zonaras does not have it). [2] Aelian fr. 348 Domingo-Forasté (352 Hercher). This idiom can also mean "for a …

- α782ἈκακίαguilelessnessSame entry in ps.-Zonaras. The headword noun is found in classical literature (e.g. [Demosthenes] and Aristotle) as well as ecclesiastical; the glossing one belongs to the vocabulary of the latter only.
- δ1288Διφασίαpronouncement, repetitionThe headword is attested only in lexicography, and Hesychius -- followed by ps.-Zonaras and, according to Adler, the Ambrosian Lexicon -- had glossed it differently (as dilogi/a, 'repetition').

- ε580Ἔκπληξιςastonishment, consternationSame entry in ps.-Zonaras; similar one already in Hesychius (epsilon1630); Latte there regards the headword as quoted from Euripides (Phoenician Women 729, 961). cf. alpha 212, pi 150, pi 778, sigma 175, phi 559.
- ε3414Εὐδιάλογοςcommunicative, outgoingSame entry in Photius (and, later, in ps.-Zonaras). The headword adjective is otherwise unattested. For the glossing term (apparently stemming from Attic comedy: see Comica adespota fr. 595 K.-A.) cf. under kappa 220.
- κ142Κακεντρέχειαmischief-makingThe headword is very rare, but see e.g. Polybius 4.87.4; and cf. under tau 988 for a cognate. Same entry in ps.-Zonaras and, according to Adler, the Ambrosian Lexicon (282).
- α816ἈκαταιτίατοςunaccusableSame entry in ps.-Zonaras; similar one already in Hesychius (for the accusative). LSJ s.v. (web address 1) cites 2 passages of Josephus, Jewish War, for this adjective; there are in fact 6 in all.
- ι743Ἴτηςhasty, eagerSame entry in ps.-Zonaras; similar one, according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon. The headword derives from ei)=mi "go"; cf. iota 742. (But for a different etymology see alpha 697.)
- α1432Ἄλυκτονto be shunnedThe gloss (also in ps.-Zonaras and, according to Adler, the Ambrosian Lexicon) is misconceived, as LSJ s.v. notes; this rare adjective, here neuter nominative/accusative singular, is attested of murders.
- δ1564ΔυερόνmiserableSame entry in ps.-Zonaras. The headword (which must be quoted from somewhere but is not independently attested) is neuter nominative/accusative singular of the rare adjective duero/s (related to the noun du/h: delta 1566).
