Lewis & Short

Parsing inflected forms may not always work as expected. If the following does not give the correct word, try Latin Words or Perseus.

ănălecta, ae, m., = ἀναλέκτης,

  1. I. he that collected the crumbs, etc., left after a meal, Mart. 7, 20; 14, 82.
  2. II. Trop.: grammaticos habere analectas, that picked up words (said of parasites), Sen. Ep. 27.
