a.cho.chi identifies men by a gentilic designation in named lists and military notices.

The term is used as a masculine singular gentilic designation appended to personal names, identifying Eleazar, Ilai, Dodai, and Zalmon in lists and notices; two occurrences place such a man among David's mighty men.

    In 1 Chronicles 11:12 and 2 Samuel 23:9, the masculine singular gentilic form follows Eleazar son of Dodo; the APB renders him as "Eleazar son of Dodo the Ahohite" and places him among the mighty men. The same form is attached to Ilai in 1 Chronicles 11:29, Dodai in 1 Chronicles 27:4, and Zalmon in 2 Samuel 23:28, where the APB likewise presents each as "the Ahohite."

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across all five verses, the APB presents the designation with "the Ahohite" after a personal name. This reflects the clause-level presentation rather than a precise lexical mapping.
