Translation
[Time-expired] and time-expiredness: when someone turns up after the appointed [sc. day], be it a festival or [that] of some other gathering or public business, he is then said to be time-expired or having come out of time-expiredness; and 'after the festival,'1 if it happens, [means someone who] missed most of the festival.
Greek original · Adler’s text
Ὑπερήμερος καὶ Ὑπερημερία· ὅταν μετὰ τὴν κυρίαν, ἑορτὴν τυχὸν ἤ τινος ἄλλου ἢ συλλόγου ἢ δεδειγμένου πράγματος, ἀπαντήσῃ τις, τότε ὑπερήμερος καὶ ἐξ ὑπερημερίας ἐληλυθέναι λέγεται, καὶ κατόπιν τῆς ἑορτῆς, εἰ τύχοι, πλεῖστον τῆς ἑορτῆς ἀπολειφθείς.
