Headword: *prutaneu/shte
Adler number: pi,2995
Translated headword: you would be prytaneis
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] you would examine, you would act, you would issue orders: for everything was handled by the prytaneis.[1] Demosthenes used the word too.[2]
Greek Original:
*prutaneu/shte: ske/yhsqe, pra/chte, xrhmati/shte: pa/nta ga\r u(po\ tw=n pruta/newn diepra/tteto. e)xrh/sato de\ th=| le/cei kai\ *dhmosqe/nhs.
Notes:
From the scholia to Aristophanes, Acharnians 60, where the headword occurs (and has specific overtones of setting up a debate/vote). See the text at web address 1. Headword and glosses are aorist subjunctive, second person plural.
[1] For the Athenian prytaneis see pi 2992, pi 2996, pi 3000.
[2] Adler cites Demosthenes 15.3; one could add 5.6, 9.60, 21.87.
