Notes (2)
- The headword is an adjective in the neuter nominative/vocative/accusative singular; see generally LSJ s.v.
sigalo/eis, -essa, -en . Though presumably quoted from somewhere, it is not independently extant outside lexica and grammars: see esp. Hesychius sigma574. Instead, there are numerous instances of the neuter plural formsigalo/enta in Homer. Note e.g. Iliad 5.226 (web address 1), where Aeneas urges Pandarush(ni/a sigalo/enta de/cai (take the glittering reins); a scholion to the line (= D scholia) calls the reinslampra/ , bright (see next note), with embroidery. - 1The gloss is a neuter adjective in the nominative/vocative/accusative singular (and masculine accusative singular); see generally LSJ s.v.
lampro/s (bright, radiant). ↩ - 2This supplemental gloss provides the masculine nominative singular form of the headword; cf. ps.-Zonaras (Tittmann) 1640.13; also ps.-Herodian, Partitiones 210.1 and 125.1, glossing the alternative spelling
sigalw/eis . Adler also cites the unedited lexicon of Laurentianus 59.16. [In her critical apparatus Adler reports that ms A lacks this supplemental gloss.] ↩
