Notes: {'Caller': 1, 'LanguageCode': 'en', 'LastEdited': '', 'LastEditedBy': '', 'References': [], 'Content': 'ἀξιόω[a] and καταξιόω are semantically complex in that they involve an intellectual activity as well as an abstract of merit or worth. Accordingly, these meanings may be justifiably classified under Domain 30 Think, Subdomain G To Distinguish, To Evaluate, To Judge. These meanings are typical instances of semantic overlapping.'}

         Comments: It is possible that in {S:04200700700008} the focus is upon social status, and in many languages the equivalent would be ‘I do not think of myself as being important enough to come to you.’ In some languages the idea of ‘not being important enough’ may be rendered figuratively as ‘being too small a person.’
