From LSJ
κρατίστην εἶναι δημοκρατίαν τὴν μήτε πλουσίους ἄγαν μήτε πένητας ἔχουσαν πολίτας → the best democracy is that in which the citizens are neither very rich nor very poor (Thales/Plutarch)
English > Greek (Woodhouse)
substantive
Use P. δάκτυλος, ὁ (about three-quarters of an inch).
For larger measure, use P. and V. πῆχυς, ὁ (about eighteen inches) (Eur., Cyclops).
mark now whether you see me move a single inch: Ar. σκόπει νυν ἢν μ' ὑποκινησαντ' ἴδῃς (Ranae 644).
