Etymology

Ancient Greek ῥαμφηστής (rhamphēstḗs), from ῥαμφή (rhamphḗ, hooked knife, bill) or ῥάμφος (rhámphos, bill of a bird of prey), possibly from Lua error in Module:parameters at line 376: 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.. See ῥέμβομαι (rhémbomai, to turn around, roam) and ῥόμβος (rhómbos, wheel).
