As I was reading Appian his Mithridatic Wars I could not help but notice that in App. Mith. 3.19 there was said that ' They killed 10,000000 of his men''. I presume this is the result of the book to text conversion and I just wanted to make you aware that it was there. I by no means insinuate that you, or any of the people you work with, made any mistake. I believe that your site is very valuable and it has aided me greatly in my research. [...]

I was unaware as to whom I should contact with this remark so my apologies if this is not mend for you and I send it to the wrong person.

tlg0008.tlg001.perseus-eng2.xml user report 7-20-15 Is this the right e-mail address for notifying you of errors in your online texts, or is there a more particular one? Browsing in Athenaeus, Deipnosophists, I noticed at the bottom of the third page “Must week” for “Must we ask”.

NB: the print actually is missing letters in this sentence: reads "must we <return> —k" change to "ask"

Section 22, the word for "day" is missing an iota subscript, since it is

Footnote 1 for Josephus' Wars of the Jews 2:19:6 is seriously flawed. The address on your site is:
http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.01.0148%3Abook%3D2%3Awhiston+chapter%3D19%3Awhiston+section%3D6
 
It SHOULD read:
 
There may another very important, and very providential, reason be here assigned for this strange and foolish retreat of Cestius; which, if Josephus had been now a Christian, he might probably have taken notice of also; and that is, the affording the Jewish Christians in the city an opportunity of calling to mind the prediction and caution given them by Christ about thirty-three years and a half before, that “when they should see the abomination of desolation” [the idolatrous Roman armies, with the images of their idols in their ensigns, ready to lay Jerusalem desolate] “stand where it ought not;” or “in the holy place;” or “when they should see Jerusalem encompassed with armies,” they should then “flee to the mountains.” By complying with which those Jewish Christians fled to the mountains of Perea, and escaped this destruction. See Lit. Accomp. of Proph. pp. 69-70. Nor was there, perhaps, any one instance of a more unpolitic, but more providential conduct than this retreat of Cestius, visible during this whole siege of Jerusalem; which yet was providentially, such a “great tribulation, as had not been from the beginning of the world to that time; no, nor ever should be.” — Ibid. p. 70, 71.

At Isoc. 4 50, the Greek main text correctly has παιδεύσεως but footnote 2 indicates, wrongly, that the inscription on the Gennadeion has substituted ποεδεύσεως. The word-study link on ποεδεύσεως generates the message “Sorry, no information was found for ποεδεύσεως.” And my own photo of the actual building shows that the error is not in the inscription itself. Please correct ποεδεύσεως in footnote 2 to παιδεύσεως.

I would like to report a typo in Aristophanes' Plutus, line 272 of the Greek text. The line as it is now reads like this: ἀζήμοις, καὶ ταῦτ᾽ ἐμοῦ βακτηρίαν ἔχοντος; The first word should be ἀζήμιος (the iota and omikron has changed places), so the line reads: ἀζήμιος, καὶ ταῦτ᾽ ἐμοῦ βακτηρίαν ἔχοντος; Hall and Geldart has the correct reading.

Possible error: you show I Cor. 7:31 as:

but I think it should include the bit you have as the first part of verse 32:

παράγει γὰρ τὸ σχῆμα τοῦ κόσμου τούτου.

I have found some more typos in Aristophanes' Plutus: Line 141: αὐτὸς διδῷς πἀργύριον· ὥστε τοῦ Διὸς πἀργύριον should be τἀργύριον, so: αὐτὸς διδῷς τἀργύριον· ὥστε τοῦ Διὸς

Line 620: ἐγὼ δὲ καὶ σύ γ' ὡς τάχιοτα τὸν θεὸν τάχιοτα should be τάχιστα, so: ἐγὼ δὲ καὶ σύ γ' ὡς τάχιστα τὸν θεὸν

Line 988: εἴρηκας, ἀλλὰ δῆλον ὅτι σ' ᾐχύνετο. ᾐχύνετο should be ᾐσχύνετο, so: εἴρηκας, ἀλλὰ δῆλον ὅτι σ' ᾐσχύνετο.

in Line 1056: αὐτοῦ, λαβοῦσα κάρνα. κάρνα should be κάρυα, so: αὐτοῦ, λαβοῦσα κάρυα.

Also present in Hall&Geldart is an obvious typo in Line 869:

ἦ τῶν πονηρῶν ἦσθα καὶ τοιχωούχων; τοιχωούχων should be τοιχωρύχων, so: ἦ τῶν πονηρῶν ἦσθα καὶ τοιχωρύχων; [note — looks like smudge in print --LMC]
