"ἀφρός" meaning in Ancient Greek

See ἀφρός in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /a.pʰrós/, /aˈɸros/, /aˈfros/, /a.pʰrós/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /aˈpʰros/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /aˈɸros/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /aˈfros/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /aˈfros/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Formally derived from Proto-Indo-European *n̥bʰrós (“rain-cloud, rain, cloud”), with cognates including Sanskrit अभ्र (abhrá), Old Armenian ամբ (amb), Latin imber. However, Beekes and Frisk argue that the semantic mismatch does not justify this derivation. See also possibly related but also problematic ὄμβρος (ómbros, “rain-water; thunder-storm”).
