Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the formation and usage of new and rare words in the Greek language from the fifth to fourth century B.C.E. The author gathers from material collected for a lexicon of Greek dialects from this period, as well as Attic inscriptions. This book is a companion piece to the author's earlier work, which focused on the formation of Greek words from approximately 1700 to 300 B.C.E. This study concentrates on words that are not found in other known works such as the Thesaurus, or have been defined elsewhere only in glosses.

In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. …
