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.

† trŏpis, is, f., = τρόπις, the lees of wine, Mart. 12, 83, 11.

† trŏpus, i, m., = τρόπος.

  1. I. In rhet., a figurative use of a word, a trope (postAug. for translatio, verborum immutatio), Quint. 9, 1, 4 sq.; 9, 2, 44 sq.; 9, 3, 20 al.
  2. II. A manner of singing, a song, Ven. Carm. 10, 10, 54; 10, 10, 60; 10, 12, 4.
