Headword:
Ἀάσαι
Adler number: alpha,8
Translated headword: to harm, to infatuate
Vetting Status: high
Translation: has four meanings: to satisfy,[1] to go to sleep,[2] to harm, to cause pain.
Greek Original:Ἀάσαι τέσσαρα σημαίνει: κορέσαι, καθυπνῶσαι, βλάψαι, λυπῆσαι.
Notes:
The headword is aorist active infinitive, glossed with four others. The entry =
Photius Lexicon alpha9 and similar material can be found in
Synagoge (Codex B) alpha4 (
Lexica Segueriana 3.5-7). Cf. also
Etymologicum Gudianum 1.8. This particular form is unattested outside of lexicography, though it appears as an entry in Apollonios Sophistes'
Lexicon Homericum 2.5, and is presumably related to such Homeric forms as we find at
alpha 7.
[1] This meaning is unattested for the verb
ἀάω (LSJ entry at web address 1).
[2] In that one loses consciousness and control in sleep, as in
Homer Odyssey 10.68 (web address 2).
