"ἴαμβος" meaning in Ancient Greek

See ἴαμβος in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /í.am.bos/, /ˈi.am.bos/, /ˈi.am.bos/, /í.am.bos/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈi.am.bos/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈi.am.bos/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈi.am.bos/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈi.am.bos/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Probably of Pre-Greek substrate (Illyrian/Phrygian) origin; the OED suggests a derivation from ἰάπτω (iáptō, “to assail, attack verbally”), literally "send forth", cognate with ἵημι (híēmi, “I throw, hurl”), as iambic verse was first used by satirists, but this could just be folk etymology. Compare also similar words, like διθύραμβος (dithúrambos), θρίαμβος (thríambos) and ἴθυμβος (íthumbos).
