Headword: Ἀκαπήλευτον
Adler number: alpha,799
Translated headword: fraud-free
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
Deceit-free, pure, not dishonestly done.
Greek Original:
Ἀκαπήλευτον: ἄδολον, καθαρὸν, ἀρᾳδιούργητον.
Notes:
Same entry in Photius and elsewhere. The headword, evidently quoted from somewhere, is masculune accusative singular or neuter nominative/accusative singular of this adjective.
The etymology of the word (not attested before late antiquity) is literally: not something that a retailer, κάπηλος (kappa 336, kappa 337), would do; cf. especially kappa 334.
