Noun

IPA: /kʰrɔ̌ːs/, /xros/, /xros/, /kʰrɔ̌ːs/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /kʰros/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /xros/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /xros/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /xros/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Related to χρῶμα (khrôma). According to Beekes, probably cognate with Mycenaean Greek 𐀀𐀒𐀫𐀸𐀁 (a-ko-ro-we-e) (representing either /akʰroweʰe/ [dual noun] “without spots”, or /ha-kʰroweʰe/ “of one color”). Chantraine suggests that the Mycenaean form points to a root *k(ʰ)row- “throw”.
