"μόσχος" meaning in Ancient Greek

See μόσχος in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /mós.kʰos/, /ˈmos.xos/, /ˈmos.xos/, /mós.kʰos/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈmos.kʰos/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈmos.xos/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈmos.xos/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈmos.xos/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: According to Beekes, related to Old Armenian մոզի (mozi, “calf”) and maybe from a Proto-Indo-European *mosǵʰ-o- (“young of an animal; young shoot”). The appurtenance of Lithuanian mãzgas (“bud of a tree; knot”) to the Greco-Armenian terms is less certain and straightforward.
