I've had no luck finding this in Liddell and Scott, so I'm asking here. Is there such a verb? Is it related to γάλα, "milk?"
The closest I can come up with is εγγαλος, but that's adjectival.
I don't really need the gerund, necessarily; if someone can supply me with the verb, I can come up with the necessary form myself.

I'm looking for something that means "producing milk." θηλάζω is perfect for "nursing," which would do in a pinch, but it isn't what I'm after.

Here are the nearest ones I could find.
γαλακτουργεω - make milk,as a nursing woman
γαλακτουχεω - have milk
πολυγαλακτεω - have much milk
προσαμελγομαι - yield milk besides

The verb is "ÎÎÎÎÎΩ" -"ÎηλάζÏ". This verb is used definitely form Hellenistic till modern Greek , but there is always a change for some difference in Classic Greek.

thelazo (meaning give suck) - sorry, I can't write with Greek letters.
