Adler reports that this entry is absent from mss. AFV, and written in the margin of A in a later hand.
The unglossed headwords are the nominative singular and nominative plural of this neuter noun; the plural then features in the supplementary material.
[1] Repeated from alphaiota 149; cf. Synagoge alpha519, Photius alpha579, Hesychius sigma1869. The phrase is derived from an iambic trimeter ascribed by Hesychius to Cratinus's lost comedy Delian Women (fr. 22 Kock, now 24 K.-A.). See also generally Hesychius sigma1801, sigma1802.
