Headword: Antikru
Adler number: alpha,2673
Translated headword: over against, right opposite; right on, straight on
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] opposite, from an opposite position. But [sc. differently-accented] a)/ntikrus [means] altogether, or completely, or obviously.
[Meaning] in the face of, clearly. The poet says [it] with the syllable long and without the sigma. "Right up against his flank it pierced his tunic."[1]
Or a)/ntikrus, meaning at once, clearly.
"Someone would have said they are bogus and clearly illegitimate."[2] Meaning truly [so].
"They also saw his image clearly proclaiming the man's appearance, what he was like by nature."[3]
And the paradigm: adverbs [ending] in upsilon-sigma, if one says them without the sigma, need to have the same length [of syllables]: [e.g.] messhgu/s, messhgu/. However, a)ntikru/ has the pitch [accent] changed, and it also changed the [syllable] length."[4]

Notes:
The first part of the entry occurs similarly in Photius and other lexica. The primary headword is the adverb a)ntikru/, in the first sense of it registered by LSJ s.v.; however, the entry immediately goes on to LSJ's sense II. See also alpha 2674.
