3. (transitively) to attain or secure an object or end
4. (intransitively) to happen (as if meeting with)
{(intransitively) in the latter application only impersonal (with G1487), i.e. perchance; or (present participle) as adjective, usual (as if commonly met with, with G3756, extraordinary), neuter (as adverb) perhaps; or (with another verb) as adverb, by accident (as it were)}
