Paphlazonta
Adler number: pi,827
Translated headword: burbling [things]
Vetting Status: high
Translation: [Meaning] resounding [ones], boiling-up [ones].[1]
"The man is burbling",[2] [meaning] is boiling, is bothered. It is created from the [verb] pafla/zein ['to burble']. 'To burble' is for someone to restrain himself and cut himself off while speaking. That is what Kleon was like; or to be disturbed; for properly 'to burble' signifies the sounding of the sea when there are waves on it.
