Headword: Ὁμορροθεῖ
Adler number: omicron,279
Translated headword: agrees
Vetting Status: low
Translation:
[He/she/it] holds the same opinion.[1]
Also [sc. attested is] I agree, [meaning] I think the same thing. But properly, 'to agree' [ὁμορροθεῖν ] is to row together [ἅμα ... ἐρέσσειν ] and with the same mind. But here 'I agree' is used to mean I work together with. Aristophanes in Birds [writes]: "I agree, I have the same wish."[2]
Greek Original:
Ὁμορροθεῖ: συμφωνεῖ. καὶ Ὁμορροθῶ, τὸ αὐτὸ φρονῶ. ὁμορροθεῖν δὲ κυρίως τὸ ἅμα καὶ συμφώνως ἐρέσσειν. νῦν δὲ ἀντὶ τοῦ συνεργῶ. Ἀριστοφάνης Ὄρνισιν: ὁμορροθῶ, συνθέλω.
Notes:
