Headword: *xeirotonhte/on
Adler number: chi,262
Translated headword: must be voted upon
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] must have the hand extended upon.[1] Aristophanes [writes]: "the matter [is] difficult; nevertheless, it must be voted upon and you should bare one arm to the shoulder."[2] That is you must bare yourself as far as the shoulders.
Greek Original:
*xeirotonhte/on: th\n xei=ra e)ktate/on. *)aristofa/nhs: xalepo\n to\ pra=gma: o(/mws xeirotonhte/on e)cwmisa/sais to\n e(/teron braxi/ona. toute/stin a)/xri tw=n w)/mwn gumnwsa/sais.
Notes:
[1] The headword pertains specifically to voting by show of hands, hence this gloss. Both the headword (from chi 264) and e)ktate/on in the gloss are verbal adjectives denoting necessity.
