Lewis & Short

Parsing inflected forms may not always work as expected. If the following does not give the correct word, try Latin Words or Perseus.

1. mŏlo, ŭi, ĭtum, 3, v. a. [mola], to grind in a mill.

  1. I. Lit.: molendum usque in pistrino, Ter. Phorm. 2, 1, 19: hordeum in subtilem farinam, to grind into fine flour, Plin. 18, 7, 14, § 73: tolle molam, et mole farinam, Vulg. Isa. 47, 2.
    Absol.: in mola, Vulg. Matt. 24, 41: molentes in unum, at one mill or stone, id. Luc. 17, 35.
  2. II. Transf., in mal. part., Aus. Epigr. 71, 7; cf. Petr. 23.
    Hence, P. a.: mŏlĭ-tus, a, um, ground; as subst.: mŏlĭ-tum, i, n., food made of flour: edo lubentius molitum quam praehibeo a me, Plaut. Men. 5, 6, 13.
