You need to discuss Ancient Greek and not Modern Greek.
AIUI, "Antennae" is not a word in the Greek style.
What was the word from which you say a translation occurred?

The real plural, from its Latin root is, "antennae".

The original root is actually the translation of "horns of insects"
from Greek which predates the Roman invention of the term (used in the
sense of a sail's yardarm as you say) into Latin.

Those who are ignorant about the English Language

strikes the source. ;-)

For Medieval Latin? Please note the usages.

You want me to write Greek in ASCII? What a hoot.

Consult "A Concise Etymological Dictionary of Modern English," Ernest
Weekly, MA, of University College, Nottingham, 1924.

It is also so described in the OED.

So you cannot substantiate your assertion.

Most Greek words that I have encountered can be
expressed phonetically in English.

Sounds like rhetoric in place of argument. As I said, the original
Greek is found in the OED - if, of course, you speak from its
authority and you have access, otherwise your response is called
"winging it" (vulgar US colloq. ca. 20th cent.) ;-)

The Greek (this is from the OED by the way) was translated by
Theodosius, the Monophysite monk (d. 1478 Gaza). By the way, for
English there is no earlier usage of Antenna|e than 1698.

From Weekly:
"Greek is recorded, in the Homeric poems, from the 7th century
B.C. It was divided into a number of dialects - Ionic, Doric,
Aeolic, Attic - the last of which eventually prevailed and still
exists, not greatly changed, as Modern Greek. Its direct
contribution to English does not begin till the Renaissance,
but the coinage of scientific and philosophical terms of
Greek origin is now continuous."

That's been done. Look all you need do is drive north a dozen miles
or so to confirm.

Stupid Boy.

Miscarriage with Mustard Greens

Why waste it? Otherwise, and in general, use ham or salt pork to season greens.

when it starts to stick.
Stir frequently.
When ready - serve with rice, grilled smoked sausage, green salad, and iced tea.
Coffee and apple pie then brandy.

Bisque Ã* l?Enfant

Honor the memory of Grandma with this dish by utilizing her good
silver soup tureen and her great grandchildren (crawfish, crab or
lobster will work just as well, however this dish is classically
made with crawfish).

Stuffed infant heads, stuffed crawfish heads, stuffed crab or lobster shells;
make patties if shell or head is not available

Stuffed Cabbage Rolls

Babies really can be found

onions
bell pepper

will need one for the top also).

Remove, de-bone and cube; continue to reduce the broth.
Brown the onions, peppers and celery.
