Grammatical information: n. (only nom.-acc. sg.)Meaning: `bare rock, mountain' (Simon., A., E., Th.).Derivatives: λεπαῖος `rocky' (E.); λεπάς, - άδος f. `limpet' (Alc. Z 36, 2 [not certain], Epich., com., Arist.), as the animal clings with his foot to the rock (cf. H. λεπάδες τὰ πρὸς ταῖς πέτραις κεκολλημένα κογχύλια); acc. to WP. 2, 429 and W.-Hofmann s. lepidus however of λέπος, λεπίς `shell, scale'.Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]Etymology: From λέπας: λεπαστή (- άστη) f. `limpet-like beaker' (com.) with λεπαστίς, - ίδος `id.' (vase-inscr., H.); on the formation Schwyzer 503; Lat. LW [loanword] lepista, - esta; λέπαστρον σκεῦός τι ἁλιευτικόν H. (cf. δέπαστρον a.o.; Chantraine Form. 333 f.); λεπαδεύομαι 'collect λ.'
