εἰ ἀποκρυπτόντων τῶν Μήδων τὸν ἥλιον ὑπὸ σκιῇ ἔσοιτο πρὸς αὐτοὺς ἡ μάχη καὶ οὐκ ἐν ἡλίῳ → if the Medes hid the sun, the battle would be to them in the shade and not in the sun
Spanish (DGE)
σημαίνει τὸν ἐγκέφαλον ἢ τὴν κεφαλήν EMα 617.
Frisk Etymological English
Grammatical information: m?
Meaning: σημαίνει τὸν ἐγκέφαλον η την κεφαλήν. EM 45, 13.
Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
Etymology: Cf. ἔγκαρος and ἴγκρος with the same meaning. So it seems ἐν and κὰρη head. It would be the only relatively certain instance of reduction of ἐν to ἀ- (Schulze KZ 29, 263f. = Kl. Schr. 358), but Nussbaum, Head and Horn 1986, 72f. remains sceptic, as one would rather expect for this old form *ἀκρος.
