Notes: {'Caller': 1, 'LanguageCode': 'en', 'LastEdited': '', 'LastEditedBy': '', 'References': [], 'Content': 'The meanings of terms in {D:67.152}-{D:67.158} could almost be treated equally well in Domain 23 Physiological Processes and States, since these could be regarded as simply derivatives of physiological states. However, the focus of meaning in the respective contexts seems to be more upon a particular period of time rather than upon a physiological state or condition.'}

    Comments: In {S:04000602700020} ἡλικία may also denote height (see {D:81.4}). If one understands ἡλικία in {S:04000602700020} as time, then obviously some adjustment needs to be made to the meaning of {L:πῆχυς} ‘cubit’ ({D:81.25}). For many languages the most appropriate term is one which means ‘day,’ but it would also be possible to use some other unit of length if this would clearly imply an impossibility.
