"χάννη" meaning in Ancient Greek

See χάννη in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /kʰán.nɛː/, /ˈxan.ni/, /ˈxa.ni/, /kʰán.nɛː/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈkʰan.ne̝/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈxan.ni/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈxan.ni/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈxa.ni/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: In view of the characterization by Epicharmus as μεγαλοχάσμων (megalokhásmōn, “wide-gaping”), connection with χαίνω (khaínō, “to yawn, gape”) with expressive gemination has been proposed. Thompson considers a foreign derivation from Egyptian [script needed] (chnā, “unknown kind of fish”), while Furnée suggests a Pre-Greek origin comparing this word with χέννιον (khénnion, “kind of fish”), showing alternation α/ε.
