Adler number: alpha,1
Translated headword: ah! ah!
Vetting Status: high
Translation: In
Aristophanes an adverb accompanying surprise and command. "Ah! ah! Don't get that torch near me!"[1]
'Ah! ah!' must be read separately, not elided; and they both have smooth breathing.[2]. For if they were read together as one word, there would be no need of two accent marks.[3] "Ah" marks surprise, but "ha ha" is for awe, as
Agathias says in the
Epigrams: "ha, a very daring wax it was that formed..."[4]
Aab.[5]
Greek Original:#
Notes:
[1]
Aristophanes,
Plutus [
Wealth] 1052 (web address 1). The first sentence is derived from
scholia to this passage, and this may also be true of the rest of the entry.
[2] That is, it is "ah! ah!", not "ha! ha!" A difference registered in Greek by the orientation of a small breathing mark that is easily reversed in transcription, especially since by the time the Suda was compiled the initial 'h' had ceased to be pronounced.
[3] i.e.
a)\ a)/ is two words,
a)a/ would be one.
[4]
Greek Anthology 1.34.2; again (with slight variations) at
mu 389 and
sigma 664.
[5] This gloss-less addendum is actually a separate entry that occurs only in ms S. (In Adler's numbering system this is designated
alpha 1b, while the main entry is
alpha 1a.) Apparently this is a reference to the Hebrew month of Av, attested with this Greek spelling only in Joannes Lydus,
De mensibus 3.22.

"No, by Zeus, not the greedy and thoughtless fellow, but the mindless and conceitedly slow-witted."[2]
Menander in
Perinthia [writes]: "any servant who takes an idle and easy master and deceives him does not know what a great accomplishment it is to make a greater fool of one who is already thoughtless".[3] They also call
a)belthri/a ["thoughtlessness"] an
a)belth/rion ["thoughtless thing"].
Anaxandrides in
Helen[4] [writes]: "[A:] an anchor, a little boat, - call it what vessel you want. [B:] O Heracles of the sacred precinct of thoughtlessness. [A:] But one could not estimate its size."
Also [sc. attested is]
a)belthri/a, [meaning] stupidity.
Or mindlessness.
Menander [writes]: "their mind drove them to such thoughtlessness that they prayed for victory over each other rather than over the enemy."[5]

Adler number: alpha,68
Translated headword: favorite
Vetting Status: high
Translation: Not simply a maidservant nor even the pretty maidservant is called [favorite], but a daughter of one of the house slaves and an honored one, whether born in the house or not.
Menander in
False Heracles [writes]: "the mother of these two sisters is dead. A concubine of their father's, who used to be their mother's favorite slave, is bringing them up."[1] In
Sikyonian: "he bought a beloved slave instead and did not hand the slave over to his wife, but kept her apart, as is appropriate for a free woman."[2] In
Faithless One: "I thought if the old man got the gold, he'd get himself a favorite slave right away."[3]
Iamblichus [writes]: "since this was difficult and something of a rarity, with the [woman] housekeeper on guard and another favorite slave-woman also present, he persuades the daughter to run away without her parents' knowledge."[4]

Abudos
Adler number: alpha,101
Translated headword: Abudos, Abydos, Abydus
Vetting Status: high
Translation: A city.[1]
The word is applied to an informant [sukofa/nths] because of the common belief that the people of Abudos were informers.[2]
Also [sc. attested is] an adverb, *)abudo/qi, [meaning] in Abudos.[3]
Also [sc. attested is the phrase] *a)/budon fluari/an ["Abudos nonsense"], [meaning] great [nonsense].[4]
And [sc. attested is] *)abudhno\s, [meaning] he [who comes] from Abudos.[5]
Greek Original:Abudos: polis. epi sukophantou tattetai hê lexis, dia to dokein sukophantas einai tous Abudênous. kai epirrêma, Abudothi, en Abudôi. kai Abudon phluarian, tên pollên. kai Abudênos, ho apo Abudou.
Notes:
[1] =
Lexicon Ambrosianum 82, according to Adler. In fact two cities of this name are known: one on the Asiatic shore of the Hellespont (Barrington Atlas map 51 grid G4; present-day Maltepe) and
Abydos/Ebot in Upper Egypt (Barrington Atlas map 77 grid F4); without much doubt, the former is meant here. (In
Hesychius alpha23 the gloss is fuller -- 'a Trojan city of the Hellespont'. Latte regards the entry as prompted by
Homer,
Iliad 2.836, accusative case, although similar wording appears in a late scholion to
Iliad 17.584, where the adverbial derivative
a)budo/qi appears -- see n. 3 below). See also
alpha 100,
sigma 465, and generally OCD(4) s.v.
[2] = the first sentence of
Pausanias the Atticist alpha3 and
Photius alpha63 Theodoridis; cf. also
Zenobius 1.1, s.v.
*)abudhno\n e)pifo/rhma (
alpha 100), and Kassel-Austin, PCG III.2 p.376 on
Aristophanes fr. 755. See generally
sigma 1330,
sigma 1331,
sigma 1332.
[3] Probably from commentary to
Homer,
Iliad 17.584, the only literary attestation of this adverb prior to
Musaeus Grammaticus (5/6 CE); cf. Apollonius Dyscolus
On Adverbs 2.1.1.164.
[4] =
Synagoge Codex B alpha44, but in the better mss of
Photius (
Lexicon alpha64 Theodoridis) the adjective (in a nominative-case entry) is
a)/buqos ('bottomless'), surely correctly; cf.
alpha 104. The ultimate source may be
Plato,
Parmenides 130D, though there too the text is uncertain: perhaps
ei)/s tin' a)/buqon fluari/an (web address 1), though the alternatives include
ei)/s tina bu=qon fluari/as. On the adjective
a)/buqos, a synonym for
a)/bussos, see the LSJ entry at web address 2.
[5] There are many literary attestations of this form of the ethnic adjective (nominative singular masculine), beginning with
Herodotus 4.138. For an instance in the Suda see
pi 71.

Headword:
Abusson
Adler number: alpha,104
Translated headword: abyss
Vetting Status: high
Translation: [Meaning] that which not even a deep [
buqo/s] can contain; but Ionians pronounce
buqo/s as
busso/s.[1]
From which also
bussodomeu/ein ["to build in the deep"] appears to be said,[2] from the verb
du/nw ["I sink"] [meaning] I enter upon secretly, with a change [of initial consonant] [giving]
bu/w,
bu/sw,
be/busmai,
be/busai, [and the nouns]
buso/s and
a)bu/ssos [meaning] where no-one enters because of its depth.[3]
Aristophanes in
Frogs [writes]: "for immediately you will come to a huge lake, an absolute abyss."[4] And he also uses the word in the neuter: "they shall not make peace while the measureless [
a)/busson] silver is with the goddess on the Acropolis." For 1,000 talents were stored on the Acropolis.[5]
"Abyss" is what the Holy Scripture calls the watery substance. So since the land is surrounded on all sides by waters [and] by great and small seas,
David naturally called this [i.e., abyss] the earth's surrounding garment.[6] Also, "abyss calls to abyss", the same prophet says,[7] meaning figuratively military divisions and the excessive size of the multitude.[8]
"I was under water as [if] in a kind of abyss."[9]
So an abyss [is] a great amount of water.

Notes:
See also
alpha 105.
[1] This comment on Ionian pronunciation comes from the scholiast on
Aristophanes,
Frogs 138, quoted later in the entry.
[2] In
Homer,
Odyssey, where
bussodomeu/w occurs most frequently, it has the sense "brood over."
[3] cf.
Etymologicum Magnum 4.44. These are principal parts of the verb
bu/w, which means "to stuff," followed by
buso/s, which does not exist according to LSJ. Probably this is a mistake for
busso/s, "depth of the sea" (cf.
beta 598,
busso/n). The Suda generally has little concern for the distinction between single and double consonants. The author thus seems to propose a very dubious etymology: that
a)-bussos literally means "unstuffable" -- i.e., unable to be entered. [Ms M (=
Marcianus 448) omits this sentence.]
[4]
Aristophanes,
Frogs 137-8 (web address 1).
[5] "Silver" [
a)rgu/rion] is a neuter noun in Greek, while lake [
li/mnh] in the previous sentence is feminine; the point is that the same form
a)/busson is used with both. The sentence quoted here is actually part of a scholion to
Aristophanes,
Lysistrata 173 (web address 2);
Aristophanes uses the phrase
to\ a)rgu/rion to\ a)/busson in that line itself.

Translation: In reference to those who give or take second-best.[1]
*ma/za [barley cake] has an acute [accent]; for a circumflex does not occur before the position of a long vowel.[2]
Aristophanes, though, gives
ma/za a circumflex: "bring, bring a barley cake for the dung-beetle as quick as you can."[3]

All except the first sentence of this entry is reported by Adler as a marginal gloss in manuscripts A (= Parisinus 2625) and M (=

[2] Yet in classical Attic, the final syllable is short, so the first syllable can have a circumflex:

Same entry in other lexica; references at

Epicharmus fr. 99 Kaibel (now part of 97 Kassel-Austin), also a neuter plural, which may well have generated these entries.
