In this article 1) I shall argue that the author of the Etymologicum Genuinum derived his entry on φώιζειν from Orus’ Περὶ ὀρθογραφίας, and not Herodian’s Περὶ ὀρθογραφίας. Furthermore, I shall attempt to reconstruct the earlier history of the passage: Orus’ Περὶ ὀρθογραφίας drew upon Orus’ Ἀττικῶν λέξεων συναγωγή, which in turn drew upon Phrynichus’ Σοφιστικὴ προπαρασκευή. This second part of the article is admittedly speculative, but, as will be seen, it is not unfounded. The relevant entry of the Etymologicum Genuinum reads as follows: 2) Et. Gen. A (om. B) (unde Et.

It is well-known that Herodian’s Περὶ ὀρθογραφίας probably included material on spelling with iota subscript,
