Headword: *polu/fronos
Adler number: pi,2017
Translated headword: ingenious, inventive
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[no gloss]
Greek Original:
*polu/fronos.
Note:
Same entry, according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon. The unglossed headword is masculine genitive singular of this adjective. It must be extracted from somewhere; probably Homer, where it occurs as an epithet of Hephaistos. (Adler cites Iliad 21.367; there are also two instances in the Odyssey.)
Keywords: dialects, grammar, and etymology; epic; mythology; religion
