72 with a high hand
жестоко, тиранически; властно, повелительно, решительно (обыкн. carry it, matters или things with a high hand) [этим. библ. Exodus XIV, 8]It seems to me you're trying to run things with a pretty high hand of late. You talk as though you settled my affairs for me. (Th. Dreiser, ‘Sister Carrie’, ch. XX) — я нахожу, что в последнее время ты что-то слишком уж стала командовать! Ты, кажется, собираешься решать все дела за меня.
Effie made a last desperate attempt to carry off the situation with a high hand. ‘Here,’ she cried, ‘who told you to come in here? What do you want?’ (J. B. Priestley, ‘The Good Companions’, book I, ch. V) — Эффи, сделав последнюю отчаянную попытку спасти положение, высокомерно спросила: - Послушайте, кто вас сюда звал? что вам нужно?
Although he had determined to carry things off with a high hand, he had known quite well that the arrival of Nofret would provoke a storm at least in the women's part of the house. (A. Christie, ‘Death Comes as the End’, ch. 3) — Хотя Имхотеп и был готов действовать решительно, он прекрасно понимал, что приезд Нофрет, новой наложницы, вызовет бурю негодования, по крайней мере со стороны женской половины дома.

77 ἀκρεμών
ἀκρεμών, - όνοςGrammatical information: m.Other forms: accent after Hdn. Gr. 1, 33; mss. mostly - έμωνOrigin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: The old etymology with ἄκρος is improbable, the formation unclear (Chantr. Form. 172f.). That κρεμών (Eratosth.) would be due to κρεμάννυμι is most improbable. It is, like the etymology, a desperate attempt to reduce the word to known elements. Fur. 115 adduces ἀγρεμών κάμαξ (`pole, shaft'), λαμπάς, δόρυ H. These facts show that it is a substr. word.Page in Frisk: 1,58Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ἀκρεμών
