  • perceive by the ear, hear, c. acc. rei, οὐκ ἀΐεις ἅ τέ φησι; Il. 15.130, cf. 248; Νέστωρ δὲ πρῶτος κτύπον ἄϊε 10.532, cf. 21.388, Pi. Pae. 6.8, A. Ag. 55, Supp. 59, E. Med. 148, etc.: c. gen.rei, Sapph. 1.6, S. OC 304, Ph. 1410: c. gen. pers., ἀΐει μου . . βασιλεύς A. Pers. 633;—also, perceive by the eye, see, Od. 18.11, S.

      • 2 c. gen., listen to, give ear to, δίκης Hes. Op. 213 (dub. l.); obey, A. Pers. 874, Ar. Nu. 1166. (Cf. Skt. āvis ‘clear’, Lat. au-dio.) [Hom. uses ᾰ always in pres., ᾰῐω; so A. Pers. 633, S. Ph. 1410; but ᾱῐεις, ᾱῐων A. Supp. 59 (prob.), S. OC 181, 304: impf. ᾱῐε Il. 10.532, 21.388 (as always in Trag.), but ᾰῐεν Il. 11.463, ᾰῐον 18.222:—ι is always short, except ᾰῑε in Hes. Op. 213 (dub. l.), and perh. ἀϊόντεσσι Od. 1.352.]
