"μῆον" meaning in Ancient Greek

See μῆον in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /mɛ̂ː.on/, /ˈmi.on/, /ˈmi.on/, /mɛ̂ː.on/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈme̝.on/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈmi.on/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈmi.on/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈmi.on/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Traditionally derived from μεῖον (meîon, “lesser”) for its small size. However, Furnée compares μαῖον (maîon, “kind of clover”), which would point to Pre-Greek origin.
