for it is by extension; but the extensions do not occur through the diphthong ει, but through 201 ι; therefore, οἱονεὶ and ὡσπερεὶ, being written with the diphthong ει, are not by extension, but are different parts of speech; for οἱονεὶ is two parts of speech: οἷον, a noun, and εἰ, a copulative conjunction; and ὡσπερεὶ is three parts of speech: for it is ὡς, an adverb, and περ, an expletive conjunction, and εἰ, a copulative conjunction. 9Εὐριπίδησ9: The ρι and πι with ι; for from Εὔριπος comes Εὐριπίδης; and again, those from words ending in ος formed with ιδης are written with ι, except for Κύθνος, Κυθνείδης; and it is a proper name. 9Ἐνδίνων9: It signifies the entrails, intestines, it is written with ι; for proparoxytones ending in ινος are written with ι; such as, ξύλινος; κόφινος; λίθινος; ἀνθρώπινος; thus also ἔνδινος with ι, and from there ἐνδίνων; unless they are from a simple word having the diphthong ει; such as, from ξένος comes ξεῖνος, by pleonasm of the ι, and from there εὔξεινος. 9Ἑλλανικόσ9: The νι with ι; for from Ἕλλην comes Ἑλληνικὸς, and by change of η to α; and otherwise, possessives in κος are written with ι. 9Ἐγείρω9: For it has come from the future ἐγερῶ; and again the Aeolians say ἐγέῤῥω. 9Ἐθείρω9: With the diphthong ει; for barytone verbs ending in ειρω avoid being written with ι alone; such as, ἀγείρω, ἀείρω; ἱμείρω; σπείρω; κείρω; φθείρω; εἵρω; thus also ἐθείρω; and θείρω signifies to tend to the hair from habit, or to be accustomed to something growing on one. 9Ἔθαιρω9 and 9Ἑταῖροσ9: The θαι and the ται is a diphthong; for it comes from ἐθάρω and ἐτάρω. 9Ἔθειρα9: It signifies hair, with the diphthong ει; for it comes from ἐθείρω, as if "that which grows from habit"; and it is reduced to the rule of feminines in ρα mentioned under ∆ηϊάνειρα. 9Ἐρείκω9: It signifies to split; with the diphthong ει; for the ε appeared in ἐρέχθω, and that itself signifies to split; for the diphthong ει for some is fluidity. 202 9Ἐρείκη9: Which is a kind of tree easily split, with the diphthong ει, for it comes from ἐρείκω. 9Ἔρειξισ9: It signifies broken ground; it is written with the diphthong ει, for from ἐρείκω, ἐρείξω, comes ἔρειξις. 9Ἐρείδω9: With the diphthong ει; for the ε appeared in ἐρηρέδαται, and ὑπερείδομαι likewise with the diphthong ει. 9Ἐξώικισαν9: With the ι; and the κι with ι. 9Εἰκή9: With the diphthong ει; for it comes from εἴκω; and εἰκὴ signifies at random, as it happens. 9Εἴσω9: With the diphthong ει; for just as from ἐξ comes ἔξω, and from πρὸ, πρόσω, so also from εἰς comes εἴσω. 9Εἶο9: It signifies "his", it is written with the diphthong ει; for it is ἐμοῦ; σοῦ; οὖ; and these genitives are formed according to dialect: ἐμέο; σέο; ἔο; and since the resolved genitives never have two long vowels, or again two short; but one long, and the other short; such as, Πριαμείδεω; Πηλείδεω; Ὠκεανοῖο; ποταμοῖο; the ι was added poetically, and they became ἐμεῖο; σεῖο; εἶο; with the diphthong ει. 9Εἰδώσ9: With the diphthong ει; for from the present εἰδῶ has come the participle εἰδὼς; for εἰδῶ, meaning "I know", has a diphthong. 9Εἴδεται9: Εἰ is a diphthong; it seems, it appears. 9Εἴδομεν9: Instead of "we learned"; a diphthong. 9Εἰσάμενοσ9: With the diphthong ει; for from the verb εἰδῶ, meaning "to make like", came εἴσω, εἴσα, εἰσάμην, and the participle εἰσάμενος. 9Εὐνεῖδαι9: The νει with the diphthong ει; for it comes from Εὔνεος. 9Εὐνείδησ9: Just as from Νέλεος, Νελείδης and Νελεῖδαι, so also from Εὐνείδης, Εὐνεῖδαι. 9Εἰθισμένοσ9: Ει is a diphthong; from ἐθισμένος. 9Εἶο9: The pronoun is a diphthong; for it was ἔω. 9Εἴρων9: A diphthong; for it comes from εἴρω, meaning "I say," 203 as if one who deceives through words; and εἴρω has been shown to be written with the diphthong ει. 9Εἰνοσίφυλλον9: With the diphthong ει; it signifies "the shaker of leaves"; for from ἔνωσιν, which signifies movement, and φύλλον, came ἐνοσίφυλλον, and by pleonasm of the ι, εἰνοσίφυλλον with the diphthong ει. 9Εἴλεον9: With the diphthong ει; it signifies the kitchen table;
κατ' ἐπέκτασιν γάρ ἐστιν· αἱ δὲ ἐπεκτάσεις οὐ γίνονται διὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου, ἀλλὰ διὰ τοῦ 201 ι· τὸ οὖν οἱονεὶ καὶ ὡσπερεὶ, γραφόμενα διὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου, οὐκ ἔστιν κατεπέκτασιν, ἀλλὰ διάφορα μέρη λόγου εἰσίν· τὸ γὰρ οἱονεὶ δύο μέρη λόγου ἐστίν· τὸ οἷον, ὄνομα, καὶ τὸ εἰ σύνδεσμος συναπτικός· τὸ δὲ ὡσπερεὶ τρία λόγου μέρη ἐστίν· ἔστιν γὰρ ὡς ἐπίῤῥημα, καὶ τὸ περ σύνδεσμος παραπληρωματικὸς, καὶ τὸ εἰ σύνδεσμος συναπτικός. 9Εὐριπίδησ9: ∆ιὰ τοῦ ι τὸ ρι καὶ πι· παρὰ γὰρ τὸ Εὔριπος Εὐριπίδης· καὶ πάλιν, τὰ ἀπὸ τῶν εἰς ος διὰ τοῦ ιδης γινόμενα διὰ τοῦ ι γράφεται, χωρὶς τοῦ Κύθνος, Κυθνείδης· ἔστιν δὲ ὄνομα κύριον. 9Ἐνδίνων9: Σημαίνει δὲ τὰ ἐντόσθια σπλάγχνα, διὰ τοῦ ι γράφεται· τὰ γὰρ διὰ τοῦ ινος προπαροξύτονα διὰ τοῦ ι γρά φεται· οἷον, ξύλινος· κόφινος· λίθινος· ἀνθρώπινος· οὕτως καὶ ἔνδινος διὰ τοῦ ι, καὶ ἐκεῖθεν ἐνδίνων· πλὴν εἰ μὴ ὦσιν ἀπὸ ἁπλοῦ ἔχοντα τὴν ει δίφθογγον· οἷον, ἀπὸ τοῦ ξένος γίνεται ξεῖνος, κατὰ πλεονασμὸν τοῦ ι, καὶ ἐκεῖθεν εὔξεινος. 9Ἑλλανικόσ9: ∆ιὰ τοῦ ι τὸ νι· παρὰ γὰρ τὸ Ἕλλην Ἑλληνικὸς, καὶ τροπῇ τοῦ η εἰς α· καὶ ἄλλως, τὰ εἰς κος κτητικὰ διὰ τοῦ ι γράφεται. 9Ἐγείρω9: Παρὰ γὰρ τὸν ἐγερῶ γέγονεν μέλλοντα· καὶ πάλιν οἱ Αἰολεῖς ἐγέῤῥω λέγουσιν. 9Ἐθείρω9: ∆ιὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου· τὰ γὰρ διὰ τοῦ ειρω ῥή ματα βαρύτονα ἀποστρέφονται τὴν διὰ τοῦ ι μόνου γραφήν· οἷον, ἀγείρω, ἀείρω· ἱμείρω· σπείρω· κείρω· φθείρω· εἵρω· οὕτως καὶ ἐθείρω· τὸ θείρω δὲ σημαίνει τὸ ἐξ ἔθους ἐπιμελοῦμαι τῶν τριχῶν, ἢ ἐξ ἔθους τινὶ ἐπιφυτῶν. 9Ἔθαιρω9 καὶ 9Ἑταῖροσ9: Τὸ θαι καὶ τὸ ται δίφθογγος· παρὰ γὰρ τὸ ἐθάρω, καὶ τὸ ἐτάρω γέγονεν. 9Ἔθειρα9: Σημαίνει δὲ τὴν τρίχα, διὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου· ἐκ γὰρ τοῦ ἐθείρω γέγονεν, οἱονεὶ ἡ ἐξ ἔθους φυτῶσα· ἀπάγεται δὲ καὶ τῷ κανόνι τῶν εἰς ρα θηλυκῶν ἐν τῇ ∆ηϊάνειρα εἰρημένων. 9Ἐρείκω9: Σημαίνει δὲ τὸ σχίζω· διὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου· ἀνεφάνη γὰρ τὸ ε ἐν τῷ ἐρέχθω, καὶ αὐτὸ γὰρ τὸ σχίζω ση μαίνει· ἡ γὰρ ει δίφθογγος παρὰ τισίν ἐστιν ὑγρότητα. 202 9Ἐρείκη9: Ὅ ἐστιν εἶδος δένδρου εὐχέρως σχιζόμενον, διὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου, ἀπὸ γὰρ τοῦ ἐρείκω γέγονεν. 9Ἔρειξισ9: Σημαίνει δὲ τὴν κατεσχισμένην γῆν· διὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου γράφεται, ἐκ γὰρ τοῦ ἐρείκω, ἐρείξω, ἔρειξις. 9Ἐρείδω9: ∆ιὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου· ἀνεφάνη γὰρ τὸ ε ἐν τῷ ἐρηρέδαται, καὶ ὑπερείδομαι ὁμοίως διὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου. 9Ἐξώικισαν9: Σὺν τῷ ι· καὶ τὸ κι ι. 9Εἰκή9: ∆ιὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου· παρὰ γὰρ τὸ εἴκω γέγονεν· σημαίνει δὲ τὸ εἰκὴ, τὸ ὡς ἔτυχεν. 9Εἴσω9: ∆ιὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου· ὥσπερ γὰρ ἀπὸ τῆς ἐξ γί νεται ἔξω, καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς πρὸ πρόσω, οὕτως καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς εἰς εἴσω. 9Εἶο9: Σημαίνει δὲ τὸ αὐτοῦ, διὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου γρά φεται· ἔστιν γὰρ ἐμοῦ· σοῦ· οὖ· καὶ αὐταὶ αἱ γενικαὶ γίνονται κατὰ διάλεκτον· ἐμέο· σέο· ἔο· καὶ ἐπειδὴ αἱ διαλελυμέναι γενικαὶ οὐδέποτε τὰ δύο φωνήεντα ἔχουσι μακρὰ, ἢ πάλιν βρα χεῖα· ἀλλὰ τὸ ἓν μακρὸν, τὸ δὲ ἕτερον βραχύ· οἷον, Πριαμείδεω· Πηλείδεω· Ὠκεανοῖο· ποταμοῖο· ἐπλεόνασεν τὸ ι ποιητικῶς, καὶ ἐγένοντο ἐμεῖο· σεῖο· εἶο· διὰ τῆς ει δι φθόγγου. 9Εἰδώσ9: ∆ιὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου· παρὰ γὰρ τὸν εἰδῶ ἐνεστῶτα γέγονεν εἰδὼς ἡ μετοχή· εἰδῶ γὰρ τὸ γινώσκω δίφθογγος. 9Εἴδεται9: Εἰ δίφθογγος· δοκεῖ, φαίνεται. 9Εἴδομεν9: Ἀντὶ τοῦ μάθομεν· δίφθογγος. 9Εἰσάμενοσ9: ∆ιὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου· ἀπὸ γὰρ τοῦ εἰδῶ ῥή ματος τοῦ σημαίνοντος, τὸ ὁμοιῶ, γέγονεν εἴσω, εἴσα, εἰσάμην, καὶ εἰσάμενος ἡ μετοχή. 9Εὐνεῖδαι9: ∆ιὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου τὸ νει· παρὰ γὰρ τὸ Εὔνεος γέγονεν. 9Εὐνείδησ9: Ὥσπερ ἀπὸ τοῦ Νέλεος, Νελείδης, καὶ Νε λεῖδαι, οὕτως καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ Εὐνείδης, Εὐνεῖδαι. 9Εἰθισμένοσ9: Ει δίφθογγος· ἀπὸ τοῦ ἐθισμένος. 9Εἶο9: ∆ίφθογγος ἡ ἀντωνυμία· ἔω γὰρ ἦν. 9Εἴρων9: ∆ίφθογγος· παρὰ γὰρ τὸ εἴρω τὸ σημαῖνον τὸ λέγω 203 γέγονεν, οἱονεὶ ὁ διὰ λόγων παραλογιζόμενος· τὸ δὲ εἴρω δέ δεικται διὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου γραφόμενον. 9Εἰνοσίφυλλον9: ∆ιὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου· σημαίνει δὲ τὸν κινοῦντα τὰ φύλλα· παρὰ γὰρ τὴν ἔνωσιν, ὃ σημαίνει τὴν κίνησιν, καὶ τὸ φύλλον γέγονεν ἐνοσίφυλλον, καὶ πλεονασμῷ τοῦ ι εἰνοσίφυλλον διὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου. 9Εἴλεον9: ∆ιὰ τῆς ει διφθόγγου· σημαίνει δὲ τὴν μαγει ρικὴν τράπεζαν·
