Perhaps: P. and V. ἴσως, τάχα; see perhaps. Can we posibly come to terms? Ar. ἔσθʼ ὅπως . . . ἐς λόγους ἔλθοιμεν; (Vesp. 471). Can Alcestis possibly come to old age? V. ἔστʼ οὖν ὅπως Ἄλκηστις ἐς γῆρας μόλοι; (Eur., Alc. 52). One could not possibly escape being ridiculous: P. οὐκ ἔσθʼ ὅπως ἄν τις φύγοι τὸ καταγέλαστος γενέσθαι (Plat., Lach. 184C.).
