Headword: *stai=s
Adler number: sigma,1014
Translated headword: spelt dough
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] leaven.[1]
There are three [nouns ending] in -ais: pai=s ["child" is] masculine, dai=s ["battle" or "torch" or "banquet" is] feminine, stai=s [is] neuter.[2]
Greek Original:
*stai=s: h( zu/mh. tri/a ei)si\n ei)s ais: pai=s a)rseniko/n, dai=s qhluko/n, stai=s ou)de/teron.
Notes:
[1] Adler cites Lexicon Octateuch. 6.645, presumably generated by Exodus 12.34 & 39 LXX; cf. in any event alpha 3432 (and zeta 197 for 'leaven').
[2] Anecdota Oxoniensia 3.238.19. Accented thus, it is not clear which of the three nouns spelled dais (with different accentuation, none of them like this) is meant here.
