"τύκος" meaning in Ancient Greek

See τύκος in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /tý.kos/, /ˈty.kos/, /ˈti.kos/, /tý.kos/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈty.kos/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈty.kos/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈty.kos/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈti.kos/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: From Proto-Hellenic *túkos, traditionally derived from Proto-Indo-European *teuk-, with cognates in Russian ткать (tkatʹ, “to weave”) and Latvian tūkât (“to knead, press”). Yet the consonant variation rather seems to demonstrate that the word is Pre-Greek. The influence of τεύχω (teúkhō, “to make”) is improbable, as its meaning is not specific enough.
