Notes:
[1] The Suda's double headword brings together the aorist active and aorist middle infinitives of
ti/nw, from *
ti/nvw, where the tau represents an original labiovelar. The aorist is better spelled with
ei, from an e-grade of the root (see LSJ, and Chantraine s.v.). Same entry, for the active only, in other lexica; references at
Photius tau318, where Theodoridis identifies it as quoted from
Homer,
Odyssey 12.378; cf. the
scholia there. See also
tau 640,
tau 657,
tau 664,
tau 667,
tau 668,
tau 669.
