- δ783Διατεθρυμμένοςthoroughly smashedSame or similar entry in other lexica, including Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon. The headword (perfect middle/passive participle, masculine nominative singular, of diaqru/ptw) must be quoted from somewhere (e.g. Plutarch, Galba 25.1).

- δ1086Δικαιωτήριαhouses of punishment, places of judgment… referring to places of correction in the underworld. Similarly in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon, Hesychius delta1804, Pollux 8.25.
- δ710Διαπορηθέντεςhaving been reduced to a loss… in the nominative masculine plural -- is quoted from Plato, Timaeus 49B (web address 1); here and in other lexica it is glossed with the present active participle of the same verb.
- δ749Διασήθεινto sift… as corrupt; diash/qein does exist (see LSJ s.v.), but in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon the lemma which has these three glosses is diagra/fein "to erase/strike through"; and see also Hesychius s.v.
- δ315Δείλης πρωΐαςof early afternoon… somewhere. The first of them occurs as a lemma in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon; and for the second cf. Artemidorus 1.7 (accusative). cf. delta 306, delta 314.
- δ1002Διηθεῖνto filter… It is quoted, here and elsewhere, from Plato (Sophist 226B, Timaeus 45C). [2] Again this must be quoted from somewhere -- possibly Job 28.1 LXX, though there are numerous other possibilities. [3] Repeated at …
- δ153Δεδιττόμενοςterrifying… 152, delta 304. Same entry in some other lexica, including Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon; that fact makes it likely (if not demonstrable) that the headword is quoted from Plato, Phaedrus 245B.
- δ774Διασφάξcleft[1] Likewise in other lexica, including Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon. That work does not confine itself to Plato, however, so there is no call to doubt the assertion in (e.g.) Philoxenus and the Lexicon Vindobonense …
- δ1655Δυσμαῖς βίουat life's settingsSame entry in Hesychius (delta2605) and elsewhere, including Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon. The headword phrase is probably quoted from Plato, Laws 770A (even though 'life' has the definite article there); other instances and parallels in …

- δ1234Διωμοσίαoath-takingFrom Timaeus, Platonic Lexicon, which is significantly different from Harpokration s.v. The terminology here is inexact. The di-omosia (diwmosi/a) formed part of homicide proceedings; its all-purpose counterpart in other kinds of trial was the …

- δ1019Διήρκεσεendured, sufficed… necessarily, extracted from the quotation given; other possibilities include Plato, Timaeus 21D. [1] Same or similar glossing in other lexica. [2] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable.
- δ486Δήπουθενdoubtless, presumably… entry -- repeated, oddly, at its end -- derives from Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon s.v. (which has itself probably been generated by either Plato, Ion 534A or Philebus 62E). [1] This alternative gloss, repeated at …
- δ1588Δυσαλθέςhard to cure… here without the definite article to/. Identical entry also in Timaeus Sophista, Platonic Lexicon s.v., probably from a scholion to [Plato], Axiochus 367B, which could be the original source. Note, nevertheless, the same neuter …
- δ1535Δρόμοις[in] races… King Ptolemy II Euergetes (SIG 463.14). Note, nevertheless, that in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon the gloss is simply toi=s gumnasi/ois, suggesting a wider application. (Plato, Phaedrus 227A-B, perhaps lies behind Timaeus' entry.) [2] The quotation …
- δ1030Διθύραμβοςdithyramb… (pi 1617); but see also Sutton's collection. [1] Likewise in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon and in Glosses on Herodotus 1.23; similarly in the scholia to Plato, Republic 394C. [2] Philostratus, Life of Apollonius of Tyana …
