Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Used] with a dative.[1] [Meaning he/she/it] makes [someone/something] hateful.

Greek Original:
*)exqrai/nei: dotikh=|. e)xqro\n poiei=. kai\ *)exqreu=sai, e)xqrou\s gene/sqai. e)xqreu=sai/ fasin ai)eto\n kai\ ka/nqaron e)k tou= e(ka/teron au)tw=n qate/rou ta\ w)|a\ diaspa=n.
Notes:
The headword is third person singular, present indicative active, of e)xqrai/nw. It must be quoted from somewhere; extant possibilities are all post-classical.
[1] Comparably in syntactical lexica.
[2] From a scholion on Aristophanes, Peace 129, where Aesop's fable on the dung-beetle is mentioned (and this aorist infinitive of e)xqreu/w -- not the headword verb -- occurs).
