  • Comment on (A): -, grass, Gras

    L ULUA = 'reed, Schilfgras, Sumpfgras"; according to Kindschi in AntK it originates from Is. 17,9,100: VLVA ET TYPHUS HERBAE [QUAE] CIRCA FONTES ET PALUDES STAGNISQUE NASCUNTUR. Græde probably translates HERBAE and might be plural; cf. BTS: "Grǣde (i-stem pl.?, or ja-stem sing.?)".
