ὄστρεον
Ancient Greek
Alternative forms
- ὄστρειον (óstreion)
Etymology
Traditionally assumed to be related to ὀστέον (ostéon, “bone”), but probably from Lua error in Module:parameters at line 290: Parameter 2 should be a valid language, etymology language or family code; the value "pregrc" is not valid. See WT:LOL, WT:LOL/E and WT:LOF..
