Translation
[Meaning] four-horse, or [sc. when spelled without contraction] tetra/i+ppon .
Greek original · Adler’s text
Τέτρωρον· τέθριππον, ἤγουν τετράϊππον.
Betacode
*te/trwron: te/qrippon, h)/goun tetra/i+ppon.
Notes
- Likewise in the Synagoge (tau127) and Photius' Lexicon (tau205 Theodoridis), similarly in e.g. Hesychius (tau666) and a scholion on Euripides, Alcestis 483 (where the phrase
te/trwron a(/rma "four-yoke chariot" occurs).
For the first gloss see tau 238; the second, as indicated, is simply its rarer, uncontracted form.
