α4472Αὐτὴ κάμινος αὐτὸς εἵλκυσε καπνὸς ἢ τροχόςthe oven itself, the smoke itself or the wheel dragged on… Adler indicates no textual problems.) The first element does, of itself, constitute a proverbial saying: so Photius, explicitly, with a gloss very similar to the present one; also Hesychius, who has such a gloss …Matched in noteshighshort
κ284Κάμινοςfurnace, kiln, oven… of this entry; it occurs 19 times in the Suda itself. Besides the common meaning translated here, also glossed in Hesychius as 'a certain part of a ship'.Matched in noteshighshort

μ1441ΜύριςMyris… The adjective in the phrase is presumably geographical, but is itself an oddity (cf. mu 1431?).Matched in noteshighshort
κ2206Κόψιχοςkopsichos… fact (LSJ) kopsichos is a variant of kossyphos, and kossyphos itself is a term applying to both a bird and a fish.Matched in noteshighshort
β546Βρόγχοςthroat… of the present entry's glosses -- rarer than the headword itself -- appears as headword (glossed by the second gloss). For 'throat' cf. also under pi 2412.Matched in noteshighshort
δ568Διάθρυπτεsmash apart! break up! distribute!… LXX ('share your bread with the hungry'). For the verb itself see also delta 569 and delta 585 (gloss). [1] Adler reports, however, that ms T has the gloss 'split up', 'divide' (diame/rize).Matched in noteshighshort

γ408ΓούνδαςgoundasBoth the headword itself and the gloss's alternative are otherwise unattested. Nevertheless, both are evidently variants on what scholia to Lucian twice (on Gallus 22 and Dialogues of the Courtesans 14.2) call gonde, and …Matched in noteshighshort
κ1919ΚοκύμηλαplumsThe neuter headword itself (here plural) is more usually spelled kokk-, as in beta 513. [1] Same glossing, according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon. [2] In ancient and modern Greek alike this is …Matched in noteshighshort
λ235Λεκιθοπώληςpeasepudding-seller, pulse-sellercf. generally lambda 236. The headword itself is attested only here (and in Pollux 7.198), but the feminine version occurs in Aristophanes (Plutus [Wealth] 427) and Lucian (Lexiphanes 3).Matched in noteshighshort

α3659Ἀποψοφιεῖνto break wind… diapnei=n and a)popnei=n usually mean "to exhale". For farting, pe/rdesqai, itself see alpha 385, alpha 3029, and generally J. Henderson, The Maculate Muse (New Haven 1975) 195-9.Matched in noteshighshort
δ1559Δοιδυκοποιόςpestle-maker… ps.-Herodian 24. Outside these lexica and grammars the present headword itself occurs only in (and is therefore probably generated by) Plutarch, Phocion 4.2, quoting the historian Idomeneus of Lampsacus (FGrH 338 F15); Idomeneus claims …Matched in noteshighshort
κ2069ΚορβανᾶςKorbanas… written Korbonas. [2] A careless transcription -- omitting the headword itself -- of Josephus, Jewish War 2.175-7 (web address 1). For this episode cf. pi 1595.Matched in noteshighshort

ε765Ἐλαιόδευστοςoil-drenched… [1] Feminine, in fact. Such glossing means that the headword itself was applied either to a women or, much more probably, to a feminine noun. In all nine instances in Cyril (see above) that …Matched in noteshighshort
μ252Μασώμενοςchewing… the verb is middle voice, as in the headword participle itself. The first active instance extant is in the Sibylline Oracles 3.329, but active use was extremely rare until Modern Greek. [2] Aristophanes, Plutus …Matched in noteshighshort
ε1138Ἐναυλήματαbarley-soaksSame entry in other lexica, but the (neuter plural) headword itself, e)naulh/mata, is problematic. Theodoridis on Photius, Lexicon epsilon818 obelizes it, and mentions some of the alternatives that have been suggested: e)nalh/mata, e)nqulh/mata, qulh/mata. …Matched in noteshighshort
ε1803Ἐξ ὄξους δίκηa lawsuit (prepared) from vinegar… separated at kappa 730 and omega 231.) The headword phrase itself generated no scholiastic comment, beyond the claim that 'lawsuit' comes unexpectedly for 'meat' or suchlike.Matched in noteshighshort
α1001Ἀκρόδρυαfruits… to be the Septuagint: Song of Solomon 7.14). The noun itself, which can mean fruits in general as here, more exactly implies ones grown high up. [1] (sc. As opposed to the ground.) Glossing …Matched in noteshighshort

ε108Ἐγκόνειmake haste!… the scholia to Aristophanes, Acharnians 1088, where both the headword itself and the supplementary quoted phrase occur (web address 1). [2] Similarly in other lexica, and cf. also the scholia to Homer, Iliad 24.648, …Matched in noteshighshort
α1451Ἄλφιbarley-meal… now 201 K.-A. The phenomenon (more commonly known as apocope) itself, however, predates him: LSJ notes an instance of, precisely, a)/lfi in one of the Homeric Hymns. Chantraine s.v. supposes that a)/lfi was the …Matched in noteshighshort
ε1604Ἐξεκεκλήκειhad called out… given (from which the headword is evidently taken); the headword itself implies nothing about dinner. [2] Perhaps from Nicolaus of Damascus (FGrH 90). Valesius, followed by Müller, Jacoby and Adler, would assign this to …Matched in noteshighshort
