__A CONJUNCTION, but not, mostly answering to μέν (sometimes written divisim), [ουδὲ μή">Refs 8th c.BC+], but not, is followed by ουδὲ μή, nor, ἄλλοις μὲν πᾶσιν ἑήνδανεν, ουδὲ μή ποθ᾽ Ἥρῃ, οὐδὲ Ποσειδάων᾽, οὐδὲ γλαυκώπιδι κούρῃ [Refs]
__A.II more frequently and not, nor: sometimes without a negative preceding, Κίρκη δ᾽ ὡς ἐνόησεν ἔμ᾽ ἥμενον, οὐδ᾽ ἐπὶ σίτῳ χεῖρας ἰάλλοντα [Refs 8th c.BC+]; δεινὸν γάρ, οὐδὲ ῥητόν [Refs 5th c.BC+]: after a negative compound, ὃν ἠτίμησ᾽ Ἀγαμέμνων, οὐδ᾽ ἀπέλυσε θύγατρα [Refs 8th c.BC+]
__A.II.2 with a negative preceding, nor, βρώμης δ᾽ οὐχ ἅπτεαι οὐ. ποτῆτος [ουδὲ μή">Refs 8th c.BC+], = and not, as in [Refs 8th c.BC+]; ουδὲ μή, = nor may be repeated any number of times, e.g. three times in [Refs 5th c.BC+] —Sts. the _negative_ follows the whole word-group instead of preceding it, σιδήρῳ δὲ οὐδ᾽ ἀργύρῳ χρέωνται ουδὲ μήν but iron or silver use they not at all, [ουδὲ μή">Refs 5th c.BC+] never means neither.. nor (like οὔτε.. οὔτε); where this combination occurs, the first ουδὲ μή is used without reference to the second, e.g. καὶ μὴν οὐδ᾽ ἡ ἐπιτείχισις οὐδὲ τὸ ναυτικὸν ἄξιον φοβηθῆναι and moreover we have no reason to fear their fortifications, nor yet their navy, [Refs 5th c.BC+]

__B adverb, not even, in [Refs 8th c.BC+] not even a little, no not a bit, not at all, [Refs 8th c.BC+]; so also ἐπεὶ οὔ οἱ ἔνι φρένες οὐδ᾽ ἠβαιαί he has no sense, no not even a little,[Refs 8th c.BC+] he did not even exchange words with him, [Refs 5th c.BC+]: in the same sense, οὐ. γ᾽ [Refs 5th c.BC+]; Epic dialect οὐ. μέν [Refs 8th c.BC+] —This ουδὲ μή frequently follows καί, and not even, καὶ οὐδ᾽ αὐτοὶ αὖ μόνον, ἀλλὰ καὶ.. [Refs 5th c.BC+]; also ἀλλ᾽ ουδὲ μή, most frequently in phrase ἀλλ᾽ οὐδ᾽ ὧς.. [Refs 8th c.BC+]
__B.II also not, not.. either, nor yet.., ὁ δίκαιος τοῦ δικαίου δοκεῖ τί σοι ἂν ἐθέλειν πλέον ἔχειν; Answ. οὐδαμῶς..; Qu. τί δ; τῆς δικαίας πράξεως; Answ. οὐ. τῆς δικαίας [Refs 5th c.BC+]
