Greek display:    

Headword: *)edeshno/s
Adler number: epsilon,208
Translated headword: Edesene, Edesenian
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning someone] from the city of Edes(s)a.[1]
But in Herodian [it is spelled] with an eta.[2]
Greek Original:
*)edeshno/s: a)po\ po/lews *)ede/shs. para\ tw=| *(hrwdianw=| de\ dia\ tou= h.
Notes:
[1] There was an Edes(s)a in northern Greece, but the one meant here is more probably the one in Syria/Osrhoene, for which see epsilon 207.
[2] As indeed it is here. This, Adler reports, is a marginal comment in ms M, presumably generated by the alternative spelling *)edesino/s (in the grammarian Choeroboscus and elsewhere).
Keywords: definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; geography
