Search results for delta,928 in Adler number:
Greek display:    

Headword: *di/ecin
Adler number: delta,928
Translated headword: outlet; penetration
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning a] passage-out.
Greek Original:
*di/ecin: diece/leusin.
Notes:
Same entry in Photius (and ps.-Zonaras). The headword as transmitted is the accusative singular of a feminine noun di/ecis, but LSJ recognises no such noun, and Theodoridis in his Photius edition obelizes it, proposing that one should read instead di/icin. For this see a later entry in Photius, delta580, where nominative di/icis is glossed with diece/leusis.
The accusative di/icin occurs in several ancient commentators on philosophy (e.g. Simplicius and Proclus).
Keywords: definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; philosophy; science and technology
