"χοῖρος" meaning in All languages combined

See χοῖρος on Wiktionary

Noun [Ancient Greek]

IPA: /kʰôi̯.ros/, /ˈçy.ros/, /ˈçi.ros/, /kʰôi̯.ros/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈkʰy.ros/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈçy.ros/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈçy.ros/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈçi.ros/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Traditionally derived from Proto-Hellenic *kʰóřřos, from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰóryos (“pig”) (whence Albanian derr (“id”)), from *ǵʰer- (“to be excited, bristly”) + *-yos (owing to the bristliness of wild pigs), whence *ǵʰḗr (“hedgehog”). But in view of the limited distribution, Beekes suspects a Pre-Greek substrate origin for the Greek and Albanian terms.
