ADDITIONS AND CORRECTIONS.
T HE printing of the Lexicon was nearly finished before the plan of the Appendix, as respects its details, had been decided on. Consequently facts respecting a word’s use are occasionally assumed there which are not expressly stated under the word itself. Professor Grimm held it to be unnecessary to refer to profane usage in the case of familiar and current words. And although the number of classic vouchers for the age of a word has been greatly multiplied, they have not been given with that invariable completeness which the chronological distribution of the vocabulary in the Appendix renders desirable. Consistency would require that it be expressly noted that the following words are in use as early as Homer or Hesiod: ἄγκιστρον, ἁγνῶς, ἄγρα. ἁδρύτης, ἀθέμι(σ)τος. Ἀθηναῖος, Αἰγύπτιος, Αἰθίοψ. αἰσχρός. δή, dua(or η)κόσιοι, εἶμι, ἐκεῖθεν, ἐκεῖσε, Ἑλλάς,

Hal., or Strabo vouch for “Apayp, Ἀσιάρχης, Ἐπικούρειος, τάχιον.
Other words without vouchers εither first make their appearance in the New Testament writings, or are so treated in the Lexicon as to furnish a student with the means of tracing their history.
Many interesting facts relative to noteworthy New Testament forms, and even constructions, will be found
in Meisterhans, Grammatik der Attischen Inschriften, Berlin, 1885 (2d much “enlarged and improved” edition
1888). See, for example, on the various forms of
δίδωμε. ἴημι, ἵστημι. τίθημι, § 74; on the intrusion into the
2 aor. of the a of the 1 aor. (ἤνεγκαν. εἴπας, εὑράμενος, etc.) καὶ 66, ὁ. 7.8; on γί(γγ)νομαι. γι(γγνώσκω, § 63, 20. 21;
on ἔνι and ἔνεστι, § 74, 12; on (ἐγθέλω, § 63, 23; on the fut. χαρήσομαι, § 64, 7. On anomalies or variations in
augment, § 62; on émis, καθ᾽ ἱδίαν, § 32, 2. 4; on ἕνεκεν, εἵνεκεν, § 83, 26; on the use of the cases and prepositions, §§ 82, 83; of the art. with πᾶς, § 84, 41; etc. etc. References to it (of necessity restricted to the first
edition, 1885) have been introduced into the body of the Lexicon where the plates easily permitted.
