Headword: *)odu/rw: *)odu/rwmai
Adler number: omicron,59
Translated headword: I bewail, I lament
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[sc. is attested];[1] but [present middle subjunctive] o)du/rwmai [is found] in place of future o)dorou=mai.
And Libanius [writes]: "but now the ash in silence I would bewail".[2]
Greek Original:
*)odu/rw: *)odu/rwmai de\ a)nti\ tou= o)durou=mai me/llontos. kai\ o( *liba/nios. nuni\ de\ th\n ko/nin sigh=| o)du/rwmai.
Notes:
[1] Only in lexica in grammars, in this active voice; the norm is middle o)du/romai (omicron 60).
[2] Adler declares the passage unidentifiable, but a TLG search reveals it to be Orations 61.1, which actually has dakru/sw ["I will cry for"].
Keywords: dialects, grammar, and etymology; rhetoric
