Οὔτ' ἐν φθιμένοις οὔτ' ἐν ζωοῖσιν ἀριθμουμένη, χωρὶς δή τινα τῶνδ' ἔχουσα μοῖραν → Neither among the dead nor the living do I count myself, having a lot apart from these

Euripides, Suppliants, 968

Greek Monolingual

και συμπώ Ν
1. συνδαυλίζω τη φωτιά
2. μτφ. υποβοηθώ.
[ΕΤΥΜΟΛ. Πρόκειται για διαλ. τ. που, κατά μία άποψη, αντιστοιχεί με το ρ. τσιμπάω, ενώ κατ' άλλους < συμπάζω (< συμπαγής < πήγνυμι)].
