Noun

IPA: /a.má.raː/, /aˈma.ra/, /aˈma.ra/, /a.má.raː/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /aˈma.ra/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /aˈma.ra/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /aˈma.ra/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /aˈma.ra/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Formerly connected with ἄμη (ámē, “shovel”) in the meaning of "digging out", which is improbable. Others considered a relationship with Hittite [script needed] (amii̯ar-, “canal”), but note that the words only have initial am- in common. The word could belong to the Greek-Anatolian substrate. A third option is connection with Albanian amë (“riverbed, source”) and river names like Amantia, Amana, Amara. According to Beekes, this comparison is formally better than that with Hittite.
