στοχάς

Ancient Greek

Etymology

Uncertain. Compare with στοῖχος (stoîkhos, “row in an ascending series, column”), στίχος (stíkhos, “row or file of soldiers, line of poetry, verse”), from στείχω (steíkhō, “walk, march, go or come, march in line or order”), from Proto-Indo-European *steygʰ- (“to walk”). If from this root, cognate with German steigen; English sty, stair, stile; and possibly Latin vestīgō.

Pronunciation

(5^th BCE Attic) IPA^(key): /sto.kʰás/
(1^st CE Egyptian) IPA^(key): /stoˈkʰas/
(4^th CE Koine) IPA^(key): /stoˈxas/
(10^th CE Byzantine) IPA^(key): /stoˈxas/
(15^th CE Constantinopolitan) IPA^(key): /stoˈxas/

Mark the vowel length of the ambiguous vowel ά by adding a macron after it if it is long, or a breve if it is short. By default, Module:grc-pronunciation assumes it is short if unmarked.
