"σίλβη" meaning in All languages combined

See σίλβη on Wiktionary

Noun [Ancient Greek]

IPA: /síl.bɛː/, /ˈsil.βi/, /ˈsil.vi/, /síl.bɛː/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈsil.be̝/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈsil.βi/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈsil.vi/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈsil.vi/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan) Forms: sílbē [romanization]
Etymology: Neumann cautiously compared the word with Hittite [script needed] (šiluḫa, “kind of cake”), which is not possible phonologically; thus he later identified the immediate source in Luwian [script needed] (šiluwa, “kind of cake”). If cognate, it could be a loanword from Anatolian or from Pre-Greek. Yet the -β- is difficult to reconcile with the Hittite form. Since it is a gloss from Hesychius, we cannot be sure whether we are dealing with a loanword or with a transcription of a local word.
