the last letter in this word (gamma) is only used in the Greek words
so I can assure you that this is a Greek word
the first letter (which has line above) means in Coptic "The"
the remaining letters makes the Greek word
Search for it in any old Greek dictionary

Just a tip I have just found in Georgy Sobhey's book
in page (15) it says:
in sahidic the letter kabba (ⲕ) becomes Gamma (ⲅ) if it came after Ni (ⲛ) letter that has dash on it
