ξύγγλα

καλῶς δρῶν ἐξαμαρτεῖν μᾶλλον ἢ νικᾶν κακῶς → I would prefer to fail with honor than to win by evil | I prefer to fail by acting rightly rather than win by acting wrongly | Better fail by doing right, than win by doing wrong (Sophocles, Philoctetes 95)

Greek Monolingual

και ξύγκλα, η
τμήμα του αργαλειού.
[ΕΤΥΜΟΛ. < ὀξύ + λατ. ungula «αιχμή». Κατ' άλλους < ἐξ + ἰτλή «μίτος»].
