"χολέρα" meaning in Ancient Greek

See χολέρα in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /kʰo.lé.ra/, /xoˈle.ra/, /xoˈle.ra/, /kʰo.lé.ra/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /kʰoˈle.ra/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /xoˈle.ra/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /xoˈle.ra/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /xoˈle.ra/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: A medical expression. Formally it may be compared with ὑστέρα (hustéra, “uterus, womb”) and names of diseases like ἴκτερος (íkteros, “jaundice”) and ὕδερος (húderos, “dropsy”). Perhaps, this word is a substantivization from unattested *χολερός (*kholerós), with shift of accent. According to Beekes, a basic derivation is more likely from χολή (kholḗ, “gall, bile”) than from χολάς (kholás, “entrails, guts”), but a Pre-Greek origin cannot be ruled out. Irish galar (“sickness, illness”) has to be kept separate.
