diphthong; for the ε appeared in λεαίνω. 9Λεξείδιον9: With the diphthong ει, the ξ; for it comes from the genitive of λέξις. 9Λιμπάνω9: ι; for it comes from λείπω, just as from λείβω comes λιβὰς, and from νείφω comes νιφάς. 9Λείμαξ9: It means the meadow, with the diphthong ει. 9Λείαξ9: With the diphthong ει; for from λεῖον comes λείαξ. 9Λιρόσ9: The shameless one, with ι, and it is an oxytone. 9Λίμμα9: ι, from λείπω comes λίμμα; and there are many such nouns. 9Λιθόβολοσ9: With ι; and it is a proparoxytone; for it means one who is pelted with stones. 9Λιθοβόλοσ9 but as a paroxytone, one who throws stones. 9Λίχνοσ9: With ι; 9Λιχνεῖα9; the χνει is a diphthong from λιχνεύω. 9Λιμβόσ9: ι; from λίαν βαίνειν; 9Λοιμική9. 9Λιμβεῖα9: From λιμβεύω. 239 9Λοιμόσ9: The destruction. 9Λύμη9: The harm; 9Λοιδορία; Λαιμός; Λῆροσ9 by tradition. 9Λειμών9: From λείβω, λειβὼν and λειμών; as it were, where the smooth things are grazed, that is, the sheep. 9Λείπω9: Horus says that all words derived from λείπω are written with the diphthong ει; for example, λειπόνεως; λειποταξία; λειποτάξιον; λειποστράτειον; but Origen says they are written with ι; for example, ἔλιπον in Euphorion; λιποτρόφια in Neoptolemus; ἐλλίπεες in Euphorion. 9Λιποκτενίασσα; Λιποναῦται; Λιποταξίου9; In Aristophanes. 9Λοίμια9: A proper name, she was the wife of Demetrius of Phalerum; it is also a common noun, the gaps; so Diogenianus.

9Μικρόσ9: It is written with ι; the rule is this: those disyllabic words ending in κρος,

whether proper names or not proper names, avoid the ει diphthong; and μικρὸς comes from μείων, which is the lesser; this happens by the diaeresis of the ι, and by lengthening of the ε to μήϊον, and from there μηϊκρὸς, and by syncope of the η, μικρός; and they are accustomed to call a small man a νᾶνος; as if being some νηᾶνος, and νᾶνος, one deprived of being up high. 9Μεσίτησ9: From μέσος; 9Μαργίτησ9; from μάργος. 9Μεμφίτησ9: From Μέμφης. 9Μεταποντῖνοσ9: With ι. 9Μοῖρα9: The city; and 9Μύρα9 the ointments; and 9Μοῖρα9 the part. 9Μόλις; Μολυσμός; Μωρόσ9 and 9Μόρος; Μῶμος; Μόδιον9. 9Μίλητοσ9: It is the name of a city, written with ι; for the Aeolians say Μίλλατος, just as ὅμιλος, ὄμιλλος; πέδιλον, πέδιλλον; but if it were written with the diphthong ει, they would say Μέλλετος, just as κέῤῥω. 9Μᾶλλον9: The adverb has a long α; but words having 240 two like consonants following have a short doubtful vowel; whence the Ionians say μάλιον for μᾶλλον, because of not shortening the α and similar vowels; therefore in words in which two like consonants follow, they shorten the doubtful vowel or the ι; for example, ἴλλος; ἴκκος; and ἴλλαος and ἴλαος; for this reason, because they shortened the doubtful vowel, that is, the ι, as has been said, and it not being able to stand before the two following consonants. 9Μίκκοσ9: Likewise; because the κ was doubled, they shorten the ι. 9Μάσθλησ9: It is the strap. 9Μῖμοσ9: ι; disyllabic words ending in ος, having the first and second syllables beginning with the same consonant, wish to have the penult be a single vowel; for example, Νῖνος; Βίβλος. 9Μίμησισ9: The first is ι, the second is with η; for the first comes from μῖμος, the second from μίμης; or also from μιμνῶ, the ω having been changed to η; therefore from μένω came μιμνῶ; for there are certain verbs which add a consonant, and change the ε to ι, so it is μένω, and becomes μίμνω, and from this μιμνήσκω, μίμνησις, and by dropping the ν, μίμησις. 9Μῖσοσ9: ι; just as from ἀφροδύτη came Ἀφροδίτη, and from δύφρος, δίφρος; from μύσος, μίσος.

09Νεῖκοσ9: The contention with the diphthong ει, from εἴκω, I yield, and

the privative νε, νέεικος came to be, and by crasis of the ε and the ει diphthong, νεῖκος; for contention is deprived of yielding; for if they yield, there is no contention. 9Νεῖλοσ9: With the diphthong ει; for the Dorians write it with η; or
