- κ261Καλῶ σεI call youi.e. as in the headword phrase itself.
- κ2135Κόσσια-hundredHere, though not in psi 22 itself, the suffix has double sigma.
- ε977ἜμειαEmeiaMycenae (mu 1393) is in the NE Peloponnese, Greece; Emeia itself cannot be more precisely located than the indication given here.
- ει114Εἴληθρα Εἴληθρονeilethra [and] eilethron… gloss begins with a neuter singular article, and the headword itself is presumably neuter: plural first, then singular. Beyond that, the entry is impenetrable.
- α3746ἈραφήνιοςAraphenian… headword is the demotic adjective; the name of the deme itself is Araphen.
- κ2606ΚυδαντίδηςKydantides, Cydantides, Kydantidian… on Hyperides fr. 158 Jensen; in both lexica the headword itself is the demotikon ['demesman of Kydantidai'].
- μ1322Μωλόχιονmallow… of moloxi/on (which occurs in e.g. a fragment of Aristophanes), itself more commonly found as malaxi/on.
- ι633Ἰσσικὸς κόλποςIssic gulf, gulf of Issos… extremity of the Mediterranean, where Cilicia met Syria. For Issos itself, site of a famous victory by Alexander the Great in 333 BCE, see iota 662.
- μ435Μεθόριονborder-country, frontier-land… The glossing phrase spells out the etymology of the headword itself. For an instance see kappa 1283.
- 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'.
- μ843Μείλινον δόρυashen spear… appears there first, as the metre requires; and the adjective itself is me/linos in prose: see LSJ entry at web address 2 [me/linos (B)].
- χ451Χωστρίςdigging-shed… either as a adjective attached to 'tortoise' (xelw/nh) or by itself.
- ε1260Ἐνεσκευασμένηνpre-prepared[1] Both the headword itself and, hence, these glossing participles are feminine singular (accusative). What noun is associated or understood cannot be determined. [2] Isaeus fr. 9 Sauppe. A Demosthenic context, however, does not …
- ι754Ἴτυξityx… the term to be a variant of i)=duc, which is itself another name for the iktis (iota 281); so Herodian, citing Alexandros of Myndos (FGrH 25 -- but this putative fragment is ignored there).
- κ1291ΚελεζηνήKelezene… of Melitene: Barrington Atlas Map 89 grid A1. For Melitene itself see the adjoining Map 64 (and mu 522).
- κ2327Κραπατάλλοιςin Good-for-Nothings, in Krapatalloi… 383, alpha 2928, alpha 3037 or epsilon 3069. (The play-title itself, here in the Suda as elsewhere, is spelled with either single or double lambda.)
- ει140Εἰλυφόωσινthey envelop… 11.156, where ei)lufo/wn occurs (web address 1). The present headword itself must be quoted from somewhere else.
- κ2206Κόψιχοςkopsichos… fact (LSJ) kopsichos is a variant of kossyphos, and kossyphos itself is a term applying to both a bird and a fish.
- α2598Ἀνωρθρίαζονthey were shrieking… Harpokration s.v. -- where however, as also in Andocides 1.29 itself, the form a)nwrqi/azon is transmitted. See LSJ s.v. a)norqia/zw (web address 1), and under alpha 2597.
- λ334ΛευκονοιεύςLeukonoian, Leuconoean… The demotikon is correctly given here, but the deme name itself is more authentically -- as in Harpok. -- Leukonoion; cf. lambda 333.
- ε2362Ἐπίκενος λόγοςempty speech… unparalleled elsewhere, is presumably quoted from somewhere; the adjective e)pi/kenos itself seems to be unattested before the Suda. cf. generally kappa 1316, kappa 1321, kappa 1326, kappa 1327.
- κ1716ΚλέμματαtheftsThe phrase given, which includes the neuter plural headword itself, is evidently quoted from somewhere. The noun is derived from the verb kle/ptw. cf. generally under phi 667.
- ε978ἘμειδίασαI smiled… quoted from somewhere; there are numerous possibilities. For the verb itself, similarly glossed, see mu 833.
- ει297Εἰς ὀρθὸν ἐπιδοῦναιto face the frontAlthough the aorist infinitive in the headword phrase itself is e)pidou=nai, it should more properly be a)podou=nai (as in the body of the entry itself, and cf. Asclepiodotus 10.1). [1] Literally, to bend towards …
- ι738ἸτέαItea, Eitea… the next derive from Harpokration s.v. Iteaios, which explicitly concerns itself with the deme Eitea in the tribe Akamantis; note, however, that there was also an Eitea in the tribe Antiochis. For bibliography see …
- 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 …
- λ536Λικνοφόροςbearer of the winnowing-fan… (and Photius) s.v., commenting on Demosthenes 18.260. For the winnowing-fan itself cf. lambda 535.
- λ348Λεχεποίηνgrassy, meadowy… 2. The gloss brings out the etymology of the word itself. For 'sleeping-mats' see psi 93.
- μ755ΜετεκίαθονI chased after, they chased after… in the scholia to Homer, Odyssey 1.22. The present headword itself -- more probably third person plural than first singular -- occurs four times in the Iliad (e.g. 11.52).
- 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).
