ANTHRŌPOSSŌPHRONŌN, anthrōpossōphronōn
Sounds Like: AN-throh-poss-SOH-froh-nohn
Translations: a man of sound mind, a self-controlled man, a prudent man
From the root: ἈΝΘΡΩΠΟΣ, ΣΩΦΡΟΝΕΩ
Part of Speech: Noun, Participle
Explanation: This word appears to be a compound of two distinct Koine Greek words: 'ἈΝΘΡΩΠΟΣ' (anthrōpos), meaning 'man' or 'human being', and 'ΣΩΦΡΟΝΩΝ' (sōphronōn), which is the present active participle of 'σωφρονέω' (sōphroneō), meaning 'to be of sound mind' or 'to be self-controlled'. The combination 'ἈΝΘΡΩΠΟΣΣΩΦΡΟΝΩΝ' is not a standard Koine Greek word and is likely a misspelling or a unique, non-standard compound formed by combining these two words. It would literally mean 'a man who is of sound mind' or 'a self-controlled man'.
Inflection: Compound word: 'ἈΝΘΡΩΠΟΣ' is Singular, Nominative, Masculine; 'ΣΩΦΡΟΝΩΝ' is Present Active Participle, Singular, Nominative, Masculine.
