Sounds Like: Ass-SYR-ee-OOS-KAH-tah
Translations: Assyrians, against, down, according to
From the root: ἈΣΣΥΡΙΟΣ, ΚΑΤΆ
Part of Speech: Adjective, Preposition
Explanation: This is a compound word formed by the accusative plural masculine form of the adjective/noun 'ἈΣΣΥΡΙΟΣ' (Assyrian) and the preposition 'ΚΑΤΆ' (down, against, according to). The word 'ἈΣΣΥΡΙΟΥΣ' refers to the people of Assyria, specifically in the accusative case, indicating them as the direct object of an action. The preposition 'ΚΑΤΆ' typically means 'down from' or 'against' when used with the genitive case, and 'according to' or 'throughout' when used with the accusative case. In this specific compound, it's highly likely a scribal error or a concatenation of two separate words that should be parsed independently, with 'ἈΣΣΥΡΙΟΥΣ' being the object of a verb or preposition, and 'ΚΑΤΆ' introducing a new phrase or clause. It is not a recognized single word in Koine Greek.
Inflection: ἈΣΣΥΡΙΟΥΣ: Accusative, Masculine, Plural; ΚΑΤΆ: Does not inflect (preposition)
