Pluperfect.
An example of the type of Suda entry where a headword is not defined but grammatically categorized. Here we have the 3rd sing. pluperfect middle indicative of
ὄλλυμι . In this precise form it is unattested outside lexicography, but for a version with initial omicron rather than omega see
Homer,
Iliad 10.187; perhaps the form as given in the entry has been hyper-corrected at some point in time. For this verb, see also
omicron 145,
omicron 188,
omicron 189.
