Adler number: alpha,592
Translated headword: penalty-free, with impunity
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] unharmed. Strictly speaking a "zemia" is the loss of life [zwh=s mei/wsis]; alternatively, what is abominable in life [e)n zwh=| miaro/n]. Aristophanes in Wealth [writes]: "you surely do not expect, after cheating us, to escape with impunity?"[1]
Alternatively, the truth [is] penalty-free, in not suffering a penalty for what has happened.[2]
