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.

sŭpĕr -ēmĭnĕo, ēre, v. a. and n., to overtop, to appear or be above, to rise above (poet. and in post-Aug. prose).

        1. (α) Act.: victor viros supereminet omnes, Verg. A. 6, 857: umero undas, id. ib. 10, 765: fluctus omnes, Ov. Tr. 1, 2, 49: quas omnes aspis supereminens, Amm. 22, 15, 27.
        2. (β) Neutr.: ut olivae premantur et jus superemineat, Col. 12, 49, 1; Sen. Q. N. 5, 15, 1: herba paulum supereminens extra aquam, Plin. 26, 8, 33, § 50 (al. semper eminens).
          Hence, sŭpĕrēmĭnens, entis, P. a., rising above, prominent; comp., Fulg. Cont. Virg. p. 146.
          Sup., Aug. Spir. et Lit. 65.
