[1] =
Synagoge alpha3, the MS of
Hesychius alpha68 and
Photius alpha28. Mss of St. Cyril's
Lexicon have what is possibly the original form of this gloss
ἀστόμωτος ('unsharpened'); somehow the gloss here has been transformed to
ἀστομώτατος , which would properly be the superlative of a different but potentially synonymous adjective
ἄστομος . Cyril's reading has been adopted in Latte's text of
Hesychius and Theodoridis' of
Photius.
[2] This observation occurs only in ms A (= Parisinus 2625). The superlative form of the headword is attested only here.
Keywords: definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; science and technology
