Headword: *)egh/gartos
Adler number: epsilon,60
Translated headword: joy-inducing
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] agreeable/attractive/charming/gratifying.
Greek Original:
*)egh/gartos: o( e)pixarh/s.
Note:
For the range of meanings of the (commonplace) glossing adjective here see LSJ s.v. e)pixarh/s. By contrast, the headword e)gh/gartos is an adjective attested only here and in Hesychius epsilon176, where Latte flags up textual corruption. (The whole entry in Hesychius is: e)gh/gartos. e)pi/xartos: e)pixarh/s). The correct reading of the present headword is probably Hesychius' e)pi/xartos ("wherein one finds joy": LSJ), which Latte identifies as extracted from the Septuagint (Proverbs 11.3).
