Aj. 1100 “ποῦ σὺ στρατηγεῖς τοῦδε;” Distinguish καί （1） prefixed to interrogative particles, when it expresses an objection: Aesch. Ag. 280 “καὶ τίς τόδ᾽ ἐξίκοιτ᾽ ἂν ἀγγέλων τάχος;” Dem. 19.257 （with Shilleto's note）, and καὶ πῶς; passim: （2） suffixed, where, granting a fact, it asks for further information: Aesch. Ag. 278 “ποίου χρόνου δὲ καὶ πεπόρθηται πόλις;” （assuming it to be taken, when was it taken?） Eur. Alc. 834 “ποῦ καί σφε θάπτει;” τοῦτο φεύγειν here = τούτου τὴν δίκην ἐκφεύγειν: Eur. Med. 795 “παίδων φόνον ι φεύγουσα,” fleeing from （the penalties of） the murder: Cic. Pro Cluent. 59.163 calumniam （ = crimen calumniae） non effugiet. But in Lys. 12.34 “τοῦτο ... οὐ φεύγω” = “I do not avoid this point.”
