for instance, `peitho`, `peiso`, `pepoitha`; `leibo`, `leipso`, `leloipha`; if therefore `migo`, `mixo`, were written with the diphthong `ei`, the perfect would have to be `memoicha`; but in fact it is `memiga`; and it is clear that `migo` and `mixo` are with `i`, and `emichthe` likewise. 9Ereeino9: With the diphthong `ei`; for words ending in `-eino` of more than two syllables, not compounded from a simple form written with `i`, are written with the diphthong `ei`; for instance, `phaeino`; `ale eino`; `ereeino`; except for `orino`; `odino`; but "of more than two syllables," because of `krino`; `klino`; but "from simple forms written with `i`," because of `krino` and `synkrino`. 9Epautophoroi9: The two short; the `ro` long; the tradition. 9Eile9: It signifies warmth, with the diphthong `ei`; for it comes from `ele` by pleonasm of the `i`. 9Eilo9: With the diphthong `ei`; for the `e` has appeared in `elisso` and `elledanos`; and it signifies the bond. 9Ei9: A diphthong; for the Dorians say `ai`; and they have a custom of changing `e` to `a`; for instance, `trecho`, `tracho`; `Artemis`, `Artamis`; so therefore `ei` becomes `ai`. 9Epei9: With the diphthong `ei`; for it comes from `ei` and the preposition `epi`; it must be known that `epei`, when it is a temporal adverb; for instance, he wandered after Troy's sacred citadel, instead of "from when"; and again, but when they were arranged, 213 instead of "whenever"; but when it is taken as causal, it is a conjunction; for instance, "since it is day, there is light." 9Eithe9: With the diphthong `ei`; for from `ethe` came `eithe`; and again when the Dorians say `aithe`, and they have a custom, as has been said, of changing `e` into `a`; thus `eithe`, `aithe`. 9Eita9: With the diphthong `ei`; for just as from `de` comes `deta`, so also from `ei` comes `eita`. 9Epeita9: With the diphthong `ei`; for from `eita` and the preposition `epi` comes `epeita`. 9Eikos9: With the diphthong `ei`; for it comes from `eiko`, which means "I am like." 9Exokethe9: Instead of `okethe`, the `o` is long; for it has been lengthened. 9Eia9: It is an exhortatory adverb, and is written with the diphthong `ei`; for just as from `rhea` comes `rheia`, with the diphthong `ei` by pleonasm of the `i`; so also from `eo`, which means "I send forth," comes `ea`, and `eia`, by pleonasm of the `i`. 9Ennea9: Two `n`s; for from `hen` and `nea` came `ennea`. 9Hekkaideka9: The compound number with `k` and not `x`; for the preposition was changed because of the following consonant. 9Hebdomekonta9: The `me` with eta; and `hexekonta` likewise; for the numerals ending in `-konta` want to have a vowel before the `k`; so from `hex` came `hexakis`, and from `hexakis` `hexekonta`; by a Doric change of `a` to `e`; `hebdomēkonta` with `ē`; and `ogdoēkonta`, from `hebdomos` and `ogdoos` it ought to be `hebdomokonta` and `ogdookonta` with `o`; but since the numerals ending in `-konta` do not want to have `o` or `e` in the antepenult, we of necessity changed the `o` to `e`, and it became `hebdomēkonta` and `ogdoēkonta`; and `enenēkonta` likewise came from `ennea` `enneakonta`, and by metathesis `enenakonta`; and since `pentēkonta` and the rest have `ē` in the penult; for instance, `hexēkonta`, 214 and `hebdomēkonta`, and `ogdoēkonta`; for this reason, since those changed the `a` to `e`, this also changed, and became `enenēkonta`. 9Erysibe9: It is written with `i`; `erysibē` is the name for the blight, which occurs in bad air, and destroys the fruits. 9Enggeios9: With the diphthong `ei`; for words derived from `gea` are written with the diphthong `ei`; for instance, `anōgeios`; `bathygeios`; `eugeios`; `mesogeios`; `katōgeios`; `hypergeios`; thus also `enggeios` with the diphthong `ei`. 9Eroidios9: The `ro` is long with the `i`; and the `di` is `i`; the tradition; but the etymologies differ. 9Eoios9: With `o`, for it is possessive. 9Esthio9: Meaning 'I eat'; the `e` is smooth; from `edō`, meaning the same, from which also comes `edōdē`. 9Esthes9: The garment, and `Esthema` the same, with `e`; for from `eō`, which means "I put on". 9Aisthesis9 and 9Aistheterion9: `Aisthetos` and `Aisthanomai`, and all similar words, with the diphthong `ai`; from `aiō`, which means "I breathe," in contradistinction to "I put on." 9Hestia9 and 9Hestiator9: With a smooth `e`. 9Hetis Arete9 and 9Eitis Epainos9: The first is an article; the second is instead of `ean`. 9Eidon; Eidois; Epaiein;
