DefinitionShort: (an idiom, literally: to take an attempt{N:001}) to attempt to do something, with the implication of not succeeding
Glosses: ['to try', 'to attempt']
Comments: In a number of languages expressions such as πειράζω[d], πειράομαι, and πεῖραν λαμβάνω may be expressed as ‘to start to do something, but not be able to’ or ‘to think that one can do something, but discover it is impossible.’
