Vetting Status: low
Translation:
Among Romans [it is] the designation of the day and the time when someone is sent off either from the city or from some place.
Mark you,[1] perhaps this is what even now is said habitually, "what is your date [of birth]?" But some [say] zakanon ["custom"].[2]
Greek Original:
Δατόν: παρὰ Ῥωμαίοις σημασία τῆς ἡμέρας καὶ τοῦ καιροῦ, ὅτε τις ἢ ἐκ πόλεως ἢ ἔκ τινος τόπου ἀποσταλῇ. σημείωσαι, μή ποτε τοῦτό ἐστιν, ὃ καὶ νῦν συνήθως λέγεται, τί δατὸν ἔχεις; οἱ δὲ ζάκανον.
Notes:
The headword is the Hellenized form of the Latin datum.
