Greek to Greek lexicon

Post by kingbenlucas »

Hey,

I was intrigued to find a short lexicon by Rouse that was entirely in classical Greek. Does anyone know of a large work that is similar? It strikes me as being a sensible idea for advanced Greek studies.

Λεξικὸν τὸ μέγα καὶ πάνυ ὠφέλιμον

Unfortunately it's difficult to read because it's an old book and has all those ligatures.

Thanks, that's great. The handwriting's a nightmare, but I'm sure I can get used to it :)

Welcome! I do hope some day some one will be able to convert the scan into a Unicode text document.

I was about to post where you could get Dimitrakos' "Mega lexikon ollis tis Ellinikis Glossis."
It contains ancient and modern vocabulary. I somehow got it in the course of random searching.
Now I lost the link. But you can get it from my dropbox(Beware it's big. And I'm not sure if it's in public domain.):

Here's another link: http://ru.scribd.com/doc/34960990/%CE%9 ... homere-com

But so far as I understand, the words there are explained in Modern Greek.
