"χάραξ" meaning in Ancient Greek

See χάραξ in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /kʰá.raks/, /ˈxa.raks/, /ˈxa.raks/, /kʰá.raks/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈkʰa.raks/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈxa.raks/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈxa.raks/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈxa.raks/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: The formation is similar to κάμαξ (kámax, “vine pole, prop”) and πίναξ (pínax, “board, plank”), and the traditional connection with Lithuanian žer̃ti (“to scrape”) does not explain the Greek formation. In view of the suffix, the word is most probably Pre-Greek; see χαράσσω (kharássō, “to sharpen, engrave”) for more.
