ἀμυνάθω = ἀμύνω. the forms assigned to this verb belong to an aor2, ἠμύναθον, hence the irregular infinitive and imperative (cf. ἐργαθεῖν, σχέθω): the inf. therefore is ἀμυ_ναθεῖν not ἀμυ_νάθειν, while the imperative is ἀμυ_ναθοῦ, not ἀμυ_νάθου.

1.to defend, assist, c. dat., Eur., Ar.:—Mid. to ward off from oneself, repel, ψόγον Aesch.: to take vengeance on, τινα.
