καπυρός

Ancient Greek

Etymology

According to Beekes, from Proto-Indo-European *kwep- (“to smoke, boil, move violently”), the same root of καπνός (kapnós, “smoke”).

Pronunciation

(5^th BCE Attic) IPA^(key): /ka.py.rós/
(1^st CE Egyptian) IPA^(key): /ka.pyˈros/
(4^th CE Koine) IPA^(key): /ka.pyˈros/
(10^th CE Byzantine) IPA^(key): /ka.pyˈros/
(15^th CE Constantinopolitan) IPA^(key): /ka.piˈros/

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