"βαυκάλη" meaning in Ancient Greek

See βαυκάλη in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /bau̯.ká.lɛː/, /βaɸˈka.li/, /vafˈka.li/, /bau̯.ká.lɛː/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /baʍˈka.le̝/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /βaɸˈka.li/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /vafˈka.li/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /vafˈka.li/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: According to Beekes, it is, together with βαυκαλάω (baukaláō, “to lull to sleep”), from βαύκαλον (baúkalon, “softened, effeminate, affected”). This, in turn, is a derivation from βαυκός (baukós, “affected, prudish”), probably ultimately from a Pre-Greek adjective.
