Vocabulary of the Greek NT

The nursery acrostic P Tebt II. 278.40 (i/A.D.) πνίξωι ἐματόν, ῥιγῶι γάρ, ";I will choke myself, for it is cold"; (Edd.), gives us the word in an elementary stage of educational achievement. Cf. Artem. p. 3.13 ἢ ἐμεῖν ἢ πνίγεσθαι. The subst. πνιγμός occurs in a Menander fragment published in PSI II. 126.80 f. : —

τί παθών; χολή, λύπη τις, ἔκσ ̣τασι ̣ς ̣ φρενῶν,

πνιγμός.
