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.

oecŏnŏmĭa, ae, f., = οἰκονομία, the management of household affairs, domestic economy; hence, a proper division, arrangement, economy (of an oration, a play, etc.; post-Aug.; written as Greek, Cic. Ac. 6, 1, 1; 6, 1, 11): Hermogenes judicium, partitionem, ordinem, quaeque elocutionis sunt, subicit oeconomiae, quae, Graece appellata ex curā rerum domesticarum et hic per abusionem posita, nomine Latino caret, Quint. 3, 3, 9; 1, 8, 9.
