Ioulianos
Adler number: iota,434
Translated headword: Ioulianos, Iulianus, Julian
Vetting Status: high
Translation: The son of the above-mentioned,[1] who flourished in the reign of Marcus Antoninus. He too wrote Theurgica, Telestica, and oracles in epic verse, and other [works] which happen to be occult [treatises] on this kind of knowledge.
On one occasion, when the Romans were suffering from thirst, [the story goes that] this man suddenly created and summoned up dark-coloured clouds and let loose heavy rain along with thunder and lightning bolts one after another. And this [they say that] by some cleverness Julian achieved. But others assert that it was Arnouphis, the Egyptian philosopher, who made this miracle.[2]
Greek Original:Ioulianos, ho tou prolechthentos huios, gegonôs epi Markou Antôninou tou basileôs. egrapse kai autos Theourgika, Telestika, Logia di' epôn: kai alla hosa tês toiautês epistêmês kruphia tunchanousin. hoti touton phasi dipsei pote kamnontôn tôn Rhômaiôn, exaiphnês poiêsai nephê te agerthênai zophôdê kai ombron apheinai labron hama brontais te kai selasin epallêlois: kai touto sophiai tini ergasasthai Ioulianon. hoi de phasin Arnouphin, ton Aiguption philosophon, touto pepoiêkenai to thaumasion.

Abridged from Harpokration (and

Lêkômetha
Adler number: lambda,434
Translated headword: [whenever] we are shagged
Vetting Status: high
Translation: [Meaning whenever] we are screwed.
Aristophanes [writes]: "especially whenever we are shagged by some man the whole night long".
Lêkômetha: kinômetha. Aristophanês: malisth' hotan hupo tou lêkômetha tên nuchth' holên.
Notes:
Aristophanes,
Thesmophoriazusae 493-4 (where the syntax requires this subjunctive: web address 1), with the gloss of the
scholia there. For the phraseology cf.
Pherecrates fr.177 Kock (253 K.-A.), at
Photius lambda254 Theodoridis.
Both the headword verb itself and the glossing verb (
kappa 1645) are verbs describing violent motion; in a sexual context they are classified by Henderson 35 (expanded 151-153) as "metaphorical words whose originally nonsexual meanings were still barely perceptible to the ear but which had come to be used as primary obscenities".

Troy, NW Turkey.
[2]
Homer uses the adjective, but not in this phrase, for which see

Teuchos
Adler number: tau,434
Translated headword: vessel, receptacle, case (of a book)
Vetting Status: high
Translation: [*teu=xos means the same as] a)ggei=on.
Greek Original:Teuchos: angeion.
Notes:
Likewise in the
Synagoge (tau139 Cunningham) and the
scholia to
Euripides,
Hecuba 609; similarly in other lexica and grammars (references at
Photius tau224 Theodoridis: 'not only a book, but any
aggeion').
This relative of the verb
teu/xw does not reflect the assumed etymological history of the verb (
tau 435,
tau 375), but its normal sense in Greek, reflected in all Suda entries, of 'preparing, producing'. As the example of the plural at
tau 432 shows, it may indicate vessels used for rendering and preserving dolphin-oil. See LSJ at web address 1.

Extraordinary fawning toward particular people, and the act of dealing not freely [but] with flattery with those in power.

For the etymology cf.
