Noun

IPA: /tʰrîː.on/, /ˈθri.on/, /ˈθri.on/, /tʰrîː.on/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈtʰri.on/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈθri.on/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈθri.on/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈθri.on/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Traditionally derived from τρίς (trís, “three”), because of the three lobes of the figleaf. According to Beekes, it is a Mediterranean word and compares the word with θρινία (thrinía, “vine in Crete”). Perhaps from Pre-Greek and related to θρίαμβος (thríambos, “thriambus”), θρίδαξ (thrídax, “lettuce”) and θρῖναξ (thrînax, “trident”).
