α1457Ἀλφούςdull-whites, off-whites… accusative plural must be quoted from somewhere -- probably Plato, Timaeus 85A, leu/kas a)lfou/s. The glossing aims to point out that, since a)lfo/s is masculine, one could just as well write leukou/s.Matched in noteshighshort

α1467Ἀμαθέστεροςmore ignorant, rather ignorant… Photius); cf. already alpha 1466 and again alpha 1469. In Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon both a)maqe/steros and a)maqh/s share this glossing, which suggests that a)maqe/steros also (cf. below) comes from Plato; if so, from Republic …Matched in noteshighshort

α1529Ἀμβλυώττειis dim-sighted, has weak sight… has the same or similar glossing in other lexica including Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon, is evidently quoted from somewhere (probably Plato, Republic 508D or 516E). [2] Attested in this form (comparative, masculine accusative singular or …Matched in noteshighshort

α1560Ἀμεταστρεπτίstraightforwardly, straightwayThis adverb has the same glossing in other lexica, including Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon. Perhaps, therefore, it is extracted from Plato (Republic 620E or Laws 854C; cf. Latte on Hesychius s.v.), though there are numerous …Matched in noteshighshort

α1675Ἄμυναself-defence, warding-offSame entry in Photius and also in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon (though there is nothing of obvious relevance in Plato). The headword is a feminine noun: see generally LSJ s.v.Matched in noteshighshort

α1735ἈμφικτυόνεςAmphiktyons, AmphictyonsSame entry in Photius and (with one minor difference) in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon; Hesychius has the same headword with a more specific gloss, referring to Delphi. See more fully under the next entry, alpha …Matched in noteshighshort

α1855Ἀναδιδοῦσανsupplying, yielding upSame entry in Photius, and in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon. The headword participle -- feminine accusative singular, active (glossed with the corresponding middle), of a)nadi/dwmi -- is surely quoted from Plato, Laws 747D.Matched in noteshighshort

α1900Ἀνακηκεῖspouts forth… an error for the a)nakhki/ei in Plato, Phaedrus 251C; cf. Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon s.v. [2] See preceding note. (Also in e.g. Homer, Iliad 13.705.)Matched in noteshighshort

α1907Ἀνακογχυλιάσαιto gurgleSame entry in other lexica, including Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon; and cf. the scholia to Plato, Symposium 185D, where the imperative a)nakogxuli/ason ('gargle with water') occurs. For this verb see also Aristophanes, Wasps 589: an …Matched in noteshighshort

α1920Ἀνακρουόμεθαwe strike up… the same gloss in Photius and ps.-Zonaras and also in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon. Theodoridis on Photius s.v. notes (without adopting) Reizenstein's attractive suggestion that it should actually be subjunctive a)nakrouw/meqa (Plato, Philebus 13D).Matched in noteshighshort

α2024Ἀναπλήσαςhaving filled up, having defiledSame entry in Photius (Lexicon alpha1605 Theodoridis), and previously in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon; similar ones elsewhere. The headword is aorist active participle, nominative accusative singular, of a)napi/mplhmi; the primary gloss is the corresponding form …Matched in noteshighshort

α2054Ἀνάρπαστοιnon-initiates… but is nevertheless incorrect here. It should be a)norgi/astoi, which Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon gives as the headword to the present gloss; and that in turn is presumably generated by the accusative plural in [Plato], …Matched in noteshighshort

α2055Ἀνάρσιαuntoward [things]… numerous other possibilities. [1] Same material in other lexica, inc. Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon, and cf. also the scholia to Homer, Iliad 24.365 (where a)na/rsioi occurs). [2] Quotation (and individuals) unidentifiable. Adler tentatively suggests Aelian; …Matched in noteshighshort

α2071Ἀνασκινδυλευθῆναιto have been spitted… has the same or similar glossing in other lexica (including Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon), and cf. the scholia to Plato, Republic 362A, where the future passive a)nasxinduleuqh/setai occurs.Matched in noteshighshort

α2101Ἀνατεινάμενοςhaving held out as a threat… view, via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable. [3] Similarly in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon and in Photius. The phrase itself must be quoted from somewhere but is unidentifiable.Matched in noteshighmedium

α2156Ἀνδραποδώδειςslavish… Theodoridis. [1] Same or similar glossing in other lexica, including Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon. The headword adjective, as the second gloss shows, is masculine/feminine accusative plural. Apparently, it purports to be quoted from Plato's Alcibiades …Matched in noteshighshort

α2157Ἀνδραποδώδη τρίχαslavish hair[1] Same material in Photius, and in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon; prompted by Plato, Alcibiades 1.120B; see already under alpha 2156. [2] Quotation unidentifiable.Matched in noteshighshort

α2167Ἀνδρηλατεῖνto banishSame entry in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon (perhaps, therefore, prompted by a)ndrhlath=| in Plato, Republic 565E); similar (longer) one in Photius. See e.g. Aeschylus, Eumenides 221, and generally LSJ s.v.Matched in noteshighshort

α2307Ἀνεργήσειwill confineSame or similar entry in other lexica (including Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon) -- where however the second glossing verb is not this kola/sei but kwlu/sei ("will prevent"). The headword verb itself must be quoted from …Matched in noteshighshort

α2372Ἀνείλλεσθαιto pack in togetherSame or similar material in other lexica, including Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon. [1] Plato, Symposium 206D. [2] cf. Hesychius s.v. a)nei/lato (sic), reckoned by Latte to be quoted from the New Testament (Acts of the …Matched in noteshighshort

α2727Ἀντιστρόφουςcounterparts… Plato: see next note). [1] Likewise in other lexica, including Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon; this suggests (without guaranteeing) that the headword is quoted from Plato, Republic 616A. [2] Alexander of Aphrodisias, Commentary on Aristotle's Topica …Matched in noteshighshort

α2739Ἀντιφήςyou say againstSame entry in other lexica, including Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon. The headword is quoted from Plato, Gorgias 501C.Matched in noteshighshort

α2758ἈντωμοσίαaffidavitThe main part of this entry is also in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon (perhaps, though not necessarily, because the headword appears twice in Plato: Apology 19B, 24B) and elsewhere. See also alpha 2759 and alpha …Matched in noteshighmedium

α2769Ἄντυγεςrails, rims… 5.728, where the headword occurs. Also in other lexica, including Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon (perhaps, though not necessarily, generated by Plato, Theaetetus 207A). [2] Sophocles, Ajax 1029-31 (web address 1); cf. pi 2299, tau 1233.Matched in noteshighshort

α2771Ἄνοιαignorance… of intelligence, as Plato uses it at the end of Timaeus (92C).Matched in noteshighshort

α2795ἈνυσίμωςeffectuallySame entry in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon; similar ones elsewhere. The primary headword is quoted from Plato, Theaetetus 144B. cf. generally alpha 2783, alpha 2794, alpha 2797, alpha 2798, alpha 2799. [1] Plato, again, has …Matched in noteshighshort

α2829Ἀξιῶνdeeming… see web address 1 below for the latter. Likewise in Timaeus (Platonic Lexicon), Photius (Lexicon alpha2182 Theodoridis), and elsewhere. [3] Sic: an odd way to introduce a gloss already given.Matched in noteshighshort
