I cannot find the correct translation for 'aggettivo a due uscite', which refers to ancient Greek.
Can anyone help?
Here is the context:
L'aggettivo θηράcιμοc compare in LSJ9 (799) s.v. come aggettivo a due uscite: ma non è un composto, e trattandosi di un hapax che compare in Aesch. Pr. 858. all’accusativo maschile plurale, non si può determinare che non avesse l'uscita in -ᾱ (θηραcίμη), nel qual caso ci aspetteremmo πτηναί θηράcιμαι.
Thank you!
