"βοή" meaning in Ancient Greek

See βοή in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /bo.ɛ̌ː/, /βoˈi/, /voˈi/, /bo.ɛ̌ː/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /boˈe̝/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /βoˈi/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /voˈi/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /voˈi/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Of imitative origin, but the exact Proto-Indo-European root is unclear. Compared are Sanskrit गु (√gu, “to sound, proclaim, shout”), Lithuanian gausti (“dull sound”), but these could instead be related to γοάω (goáō, “to wail”) (from *gewH- (“to cry out”), *geH- (“to cry”)). Also compare βύας (búas, “eagle owl”), βοηθέω (boēthéō, “to help someone”), βωστρέω (bōstréō, “to call on for aid”).
