Strong’s Greek Lexicon
neuter of a compound of G5495 and G1125; something hand-written (“chirograph”), i.e. a manuscript (specifically, a legal document or bond [figuratively]):—handwriting.
Owing to changes in the enumeration while in progress, there were no words left for numbers 2717 and 3203–3302, which were therefore silently dropped out of the vocabulary and references as redundant.
