Headword: *)ende/casqai
Adler number: epsilon,1160
Translated headword: to accept, to hear, to receive (by hearing)

Greek Original:
*)ende/casqai: paralabei=n, a)kroa/sasqai. ou)/koun pro/sqen e)/ti a)pokri/nesqai peri\ spondw=n ou)de\ fi/lion lo/gon e)nde/casqai peri\ tw=n ta\ pole/mia e)/rga drw/ntwn.
Notes:
The headword, presumably extracted from the quotation given, is aorist infinitive of the middle-voice verb e)nde/xomai (epsilon 1163).
[1] Adler suggests Arrian, Parthika p.37, n.133 Roos as the source of the quotation (reproduced more briefly in ps.-Zonaras). The sentence as transmitted, in any event, lacks a main verb.
Keywords: definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; ethics; historiography; history; military affairs
