Explanation: This word is a comparative adjective, meaning 'more timid' or 'more cowardly'. It describes someone who is less daring or less bold than another. It is formed from the negative prefix 'α-' (a-) meaning 'un-' or 'not', and 'τόλμος' (tolmos) meaning 'daring' or 'boldness'. Thus, 'ἀτόλμος' means 'undaring' or 'timid', and 'ἀτολμότερον' is its comparative form.
