Headword: *)efena/kizon
Adler number: epsilon,3856
Translated headword: they were playing the cheat
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] they were deceiving.
Greek Original:
*)efena/kizon: h)pa/twn.
Notes:
Similar entry already in Hesychius epsilon7379 (and cf. Pollux 4.25). The headword is imperfect, third person plural (or, less probably, first person singular), of fenaki/zw (LSJ entry at web address 1). In general this verb is common in the Attic orators, especially Demosthenes, and in comedy, though this particular form is extant only in post-classical writers.
The Suda's gloss is the same form of a)pata/w; cf. phi 194, phi 196.
