(Digammas? Digammai? Digammata?)



This question revolved around a dialectal form that I'd never seen before. Normally when encountering a new Greek word, Attic or otherwise, my first instinct is to look it up in Perseus.



However, the input guide on Perseus doesn't list digamma. Is there a better way to look up a word like Aeolic ϝε? (I'm not even sure if LSJ include forms like that.)

          Believe it or not, it is actually in L&S, here:



          http://perseus.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/philologic/getobject.pl?c.53:9:95.LSJ



          In the alphabet waw comes after epsilon. But L&S ignore it for the purposes of lemmatisation.

          • Oh, nice! That answers the specific question I had. For the general case, are you saying I should search without the digamma, then look for it in the specific entry?
