Shouldn't this be a disambiguation of some sort, to include the Greek ἄνθος that is often given as Anthos in English? 64.231.20.253 22:43, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No, we don't use transcription forms of words. Every language has its own transcription system for other languages, so that Ancient Greek ἄνθος might be transcribed differently in English, Russian, or Japanese. We include only the words themselves, and not entries for all their possible transcription forms. --EncycloPetey 01:36, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
