Comments VdH comm: ἴδια ῥήματα has been accepted by Timpanaro, Il nuovo Frontone 374, and Nuovi contributi 356, as well as by Portalupi (she translates 'la prosa'); earlier editors had 'phonemata', which is not in our lexica. Φωνήεντα could mean 'sounding words'. Epiphonemata is impossible: see at 77,11.
