Notes:
See also kappa 917 and kappa 926.
[1] cf. Photius, Lexicon kappa240 Theodoridis; also Apollonius the Sophist commenting on kaddraqe/thn from Homer, Odyssey 15.494.
[2] Aorist infinitive of the headword verb; extracted from the quotation that follows.
[3] cf. LSJ s.v. katakoima/w, II.2.
[4] Aristophanes, Wealth [Plutus] 527, with scholion.
[5] The lexicographer asserts that in Attic the infinitive is accented on the next-to-last syllable, as if a present infinitive from a verb katada/rqw, instead of being pronounced with a circumflex accent on the last syllable, as would be expected for a second aorist infinitive.
[6] Aelian fr. 92f Domingo-Forasté (part of 89 Hercher).
