Sounds Like: khry-SO-kho-on
Translations: goldsmith, a goldsmith, made of gold, golden
From the root: ΧΡΥΣΟΧΟΟΣ
Part of Speech: Noun, Adjective
Explanation: This word is a compound word derived from 'χρυσός' (gold) and 'χέω' (to pour, to melt). It primarily refers to a 'goldsmith,' someone who works with gold, especially by melting and casting it. It can also function as an adjective meaning 'made of gold' or 'golden,' describing something composed of or resembling gold. The final 'ΟΝ' indicates the accusative singular masculine/neuter or nominative/accusative singular neuter form. The ' at the end is a coronis, indicating an elision, but in this specific word, it's likely a misrepresentation or a very rare elision, as the standard form is ΧΡΥΣΟΧΟΟΣ. It's more probable that the ' is a keraia, indicating a numerical value, or simply a transcription error, as the word itself is usually spelled without it.
Inflection: Singular, Accusative, Masculine or Neuter; or Singular, Nominative, Neuter
