"γωνία" meaning in Ancient Greek

See γωνία in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ɡɔː.ní.aː/, /ɣoˈni.a/, /ɣoˈni.a/, /ɡɔː.ní.aː/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ɡoˈni.a/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ɣoˈni.a/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ɣoˈni.a/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ɣoˈni.a/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: From a derivative of γόνυ (gónu, “knee”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *ǵónu (“id”). The long ω (ō) is from the regular Doric development of an unattested *γονϝ-ία (*gonw-ía), as the paradigm of *ǵónu shows no lengthened grade (thus precluding a derivation from such an ablaut), while most mathematicians in Greek antiquity (who were most likely responsible for the word's formation) were Pythagorean (and thus wrote in Doric).
