"Esox" meaning in All languages combined

See Esox on Wiktionary

Proper name [Translingual]

Etymology: Attested in Pliny the Elder's Natural History as a word for a large fish from the Rhine, but otherwise only in New Latin, applied by Linnaeus to a pike. Most likely, the scant Classical references to a fresh-water fish indicate that the word was borrowed from Proto-Celtic *esoxs (compare Old Irish eó (“salmon”), Middle Welsh ehawc (“salmon”)); usually also compared is Ancient Greek ἴσοξ (ísox, “unknown whale-like fish”), attested only in a vocabulary list.
