Greek display:    

Headword: Μῶκος
Adler number: mu,1319
Translated headword: mocker
Vetting Status: low
Translation:
Derider, dullard, jester; also [sc. attested is the participle] μωκωμένης ["she being mocked"]; [meaning] she being derided.[1]
Greek Original:
Μῶκος: χλευαστής, μωρός, σκώπτης: καὶ μωκωμένης: χλευαζομένης.
Notes:
The accentuation of the headword, μῶκος , ought to mean that it is the abstract noun "mockery", but the glossing terms show that it should have been -- as, in other lexica, it is -- μωκός (quoted, as Adler notes, from the Septuagint: Ecclesiasticus 33.6).
[1] For this verb cf. mu 1320, mu 1321. The present entry's feminine genitive singular μωκωμένης , similarly glossed in other lexica, is evidently quoted from somewhere.
Keywords: definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; ethics; religion; women
