[edit] Dhrakos

Only three Google hits for this term, and two of these both reference the book "Greek Wonder Tales" by Lucy M. J. Garnett. RickK 05:23, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)

Delete. Seems like a hoax. -- Natalinasmpf 14:03, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Delete: Completely wrong. Ancient Greek didn't have /Dh/ for one thing. Geogre 17:32, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Delete smells like a hoax. I've read a lot of Greek mythology and never heard of them. One wonders where Ms. Garnett came up with this. --Etacar11 20:08, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Comment. On the 3rd link if you google for the term, it is said that "Dragon Δράκος Dhrakos". So the article may be factually wrong. Otherwise, it must just be an obscure term for Dragon in Greek. Any Greek speaker here? -Hmib 20:24, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Δ is the greek capital d, which would make it Drakos rather than Dhrakos. Implies 'drake' (aka dragonling or lesser dragon, depending on which mythology or fiction you're reading), but the lack of substance and lack of justification leads me to vote delete unless it's made more informative. --Firien 23:09, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Comment. I think they are implying that rho was pronounced [hr]. platypeanArchcow 00:11, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
