Greek display:    

Headword: *eu)/eikton
Adler number: epsilon,3457
Translated headword: pliant, tractable
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] obedient, finely yielding.
Greek Original:
*eu)/eikton: eu)peiqh=, kalw=s ei)/konta.
Note:
Hesychius epsilon6779 has the headword and the first gloss; Photius and other lexica present the entry as neuter singulars (i.e. the glossing is eu)peiqe/s, kalw=s ei)=kon) rather than the Suda's masculine accusative singular. Either way, the headword must be quoted from somewhere; the extant possibilities are all post-classical.
Keywords: definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; ethics; imagery
