bḗrullos
Borrowed from Middle Indic forms like Pali veḷuriya or Prakrit 𑀯𑁂𑀭𑀼𑀮𑀺𑀅 (verulia), from Dravidian, probably named after Velur (modern day Belur) in southern India.
The variants βηρύλλιον (bērúllion) and βηρύλλιος (bērúllios) reflect the source veruḷiya more faithfully than βήρυλλος (bḗrullos).
- IPA(key): /bɛ̌ː.ryl.los/ → /ˈβi.ryl.los/ → /ˈvi.ri.los/
βήρυλλος • (bḗrullos) f (genitive βηρύλλου); second declension
