Headword: *pefronhmatisme/nos
Adler number: pi,1429
Translated headword: having become presumptuous
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning someone who was] filled with conceit.[1] "But he often being successful in battles and having become presumptuous in regard to courage [...]."[2]
Greek Original:
*pefronhmatisme/nos: oi)h/sews plhrwqei/s. o( de\ kata\ ta\s ma/xas polla/kis eu)hmerw=n kai\ pefronhmatisme/nos e)p' a)ndrei/a|.
Notes:
The headword -- perfect participle, masculine nominative singular, of fronhmati/zomai (phi 723, phi 724, and cf. phi 725) -- is presumably extracted from the quotation given.
[2] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable -- but very probably from Diodorus Siculus, who has the only instances of the headword (4 passages) outside this entry.
Keywords: biography; definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; ethics; historiography; military affairs
