Ἀναπίπτειν
Adler number: alpha,2019
Translated headword: to fall back
Vetting Status: high
Translation: [To fall back] is the word for being despondent among the ancients. To fall back is [properly applied to][1] the heart, as being despondent, being neglectful.[2] But
Cratinus uses this term for rowers, rowing and reclining.[3]
Also [sc. attested is]
ἀναπεσεῖν ,[4] [meaning] to recline.
Ἀναπίπτειν τὸ ἀθυμεῖν λέγεται παρὰ τοῖς παλαιοῖς. ἀναπίπτειν ἐπὶ ψυχῆς ἐστιν, οἷον ἀθυμεῖν, ὀλιγωρεῖν. Κρατῖνος δὲ ἐπὶ τῶν ἐρετῶν κέχρηται τῇ λέξει, ἐρεσσόντων καὶ ἀνακλινομένων. καὶ Ἀναπεσεῖν, ἀνακλιθῆναι.

alpha 2018. The source for both is
Athenaeus, Deipnosophists 1.23B (1.42 Kaibel). See further below, nn.1-2.
[1]
Athenaeus has this adverb,
κυρίως .
[2] So the Suda mss,
ὀλιγωρεῖν ; but
ὀλιγοδρανεῖν (
Athenaeus), "to be feeble", looks better.
[3]
Cratinus fr. 345 Kock.
[4] The same verb, but aorist infinitive rather than present.
