Notes:
This adjective comes from the verb
punqa/nomai (
pi 3173,
pi 3174,
pi 3175; and for
e)kpunqa/nomai cf. under
beta 67,
omicron 805).
[1] Likewise in other lexica. This neuter plural is presumably quoted from somewhere; extant possibilities are numerous and all post-classical.
[2] cf.
alpha 3879 for this adjective in an active sense.
[3] Quotation unidentifiable. (Adler's attribution to
Aelian has no discernible basis.)
