γλαυκή[edit]

According to my dictionary, the femenine form of γλαυκός is γλαυκή, not γλαυκά. See here. --87.222.103.88 09:35, 27 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

γλαυκά is a perfectly correct form in some dialects. Attic (with some exceptions) and Ionic changed original long α to η. Of course, Attic eventually became the standard over the other dialects, so it's generally better to use the Attic forms most of the time. Chuck Entz (talk) 21:17, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
