γαμψός

Ancient Greek

Etymology

According to Beekes, the word may well be from Pre-Greek and related to γνάμπτω (gnámptō, “to bend”) and κάμπτω (kámptō, “to curve”).

Pronunciation

(5^th BCE Attic) IPA^(key): /ɡamp.sós/
(1^st CE Egyptian) IPA^(key): /ɡampˈsos/
(4^th CE Koine) IPA^(key): /ɣampˈsos/
(10^th CE Byzantine) IPA^(key): /ɣampˈsos/
(15^th CE Constantinopolitan) IPA^(key): /ɣampˈsos/

Mark the vowel length of the ambiguous vowel α by adding a macron after it if it is long, or a breve if it is short. By default, Module:grc-pronunciation assumes it is short if unmarked.
