ε1097Ἔναγχοςjust now, recently… variously, in other lexica, including (for the second gloss here) Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon. The headword adverb is probably not extracted from (but merely illustrated by) the quotation given below; there are numerous other possibilities, …Matched in noteshighshort

ε1184Ἐνδοῦναιto give in… cf. epsilon 1185, epsilon 1186, epsilon 1225. Entry as in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon; thus the headword is probably (though not necessarily) quoted from its sole appearance in Plato, at Phaedrus 241C.Matched in noteshighshort

ε2096Ἐπετίμαwas raising the pricecf. generally epsilon 672, epsilon 2703. [1] Likewise in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon. The headword must be quoted from somewhere, but is not extant in Plato. Arguably the best-known instance of the headword, in the …Matched in noteshighshort
