Some Roman comedies have Greek titles, which always caused problems for medieval scribes. Here is a nice example from Donatus: Caecilius in Ἁρπαζομένῃ (ἀρπαζόμενη V, apna30MENN T, * * * * * * C). T's solution may look like nonsense at first, but is actually quite close.

"Cicero advises that explaining a joke kills it. I am going to ignore his advice and try to write about what the Romans found funny: where did their sense of humour converge with, and diverge from, ours?" A tour of the raucous world of Plautus and Terence: antigonejournal.com/2021/08/what-r…
Certainly not the most fun part of our work: determining the progress of our edition. The good news is: we are well on schedule. 🚄
