Search results for omicron,487 in Adler number:
Greek display:    

Headword: *)optani/a
Adler number: omicron,487
Translated headword: view (?)
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] an outlook.
Greek Original:
*)optani/a: h( a)po/bleyis.
Note:
The entry is paralleled in ps.-Zonaras (obelized by Tittman); Adler reports the headword in the Ambrosian Lexicon. The word seems to lack other attestation. In a fragment of Matron the parodist (mu 289) quoted by Athenaeus, Deipnosophists 4.134F (4.13 Kaibel) the mock-epic genitive plural o)ptania/wn seems to relate to roasting (cf. omicron 486) rather than sight.
Keywords: comedy; definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; food
