irmos

• heirmos
• hirmos

From Ancient Greek εἱρμός (heirmós).

irmos (plural irmoi)

1. (Christianity) The initial troparion of an ode of a canon.
   • 2014, Derek Krueger, Liturgical Subjects: Christian Ritual, Biblical Narrative, and the Formation of the Self in Byzantium:

     Each ode has its own meter and tune called an irmos (εἱρμός; plural irmoi), introduced in the first stanza and repeated. The second, third, and sixth odes are divided into two sections, with different irmoi, perhaps allowing Andrew a greater variety of chant melodies to break up what might otherwise become monotonous.
