"ἀκρίς" meaning in Ancient Greek

See ἀκρίς in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /a.krís/, /aˈkris/, /aˈkris/, /a.krís/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /aˈkris/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /aˈkris/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /aˈkris/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /aˈkris/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Hardly related to κρίζω (krízō, “to creak”). Winter connects it with κέρκα (kérka, “grasshopper”), suggesting a Pre-Greek origin, which is quite probable for a grasshopper.
