Headword:
*)optw=ntes
Adler number: omicron,489
Translated headword: broiling, frying
Vetting Status: high
Translation: [Meaning they] boiling.[1]
Also [sc. attested is] o)ptw/mena ["broiled things"]. So o)ptw=ntes ["they broiling"] [comes] from being occupied and dealing with the broiling of meat. But e(yw=ntes, from which also [comes the adjective] e(fqo/n ["[something] boiled"], and e(/yontes [means] the same,[2] but yw=ntes [means] they wiping.[3] There is also [a verb] ya/w, yw=, [meaning] I rub down, and from it comes yh/xw ["I rub"] and yh=ktron ["curry-comb"].[4]

Notes:
The headword is the present participle of the verb
o)pta/w (on which see further, next note), masculine nominative plural. It must be quoted from somewhere (e.g.
Xenophon,
Anabasis 5.4.29, which uses both this and the glossing participle).
[1] (Adler reports a similar entry in the
Ambrosian Lexicon.) The verb
o)pta/w normally involves dry heat, while
e(/yw refers to cooking with moist heat. Homeric heroes eat only broiled meat. See also
omicron 486.
[2] Herodian says
e(/yw is Attic;
e(ye/w is doubtful, according to LSJ s.v., and
e(ya/w is late.
[3] cf.
alpha 3112.
[4] cf.
psi 66.
