Notes:
[1] Headword and gloss are adjectives (hard to render into English except by these phrases) in the neuter accusative singular. See further, next note.
[2] The entry so far reproduces the scholia to Lucian, How to Write History 14, where the headword occurs. cf. generally kappa 2258, kappa 2259, kappa 2260, kappa 2261. (For the relation of this meaning to "encomium," see LSJ s.v.)
[3] cf. epsilon 117.
