Part of Speech: Adverb, Preposition

Explanation: This word functions as an adverb meaning 'opposite' or 'over against', indicating a position directly facing something. It can also be used as a preposition, taking the genitive case, to mean 'in front of' or 'before' a person or object. It is often found in the form 'ἀπέναντι' (apenanti) or 'ἀπέναντιον' (apenantion). The form 'ΑΠΕΝΑΝ' is likely a shortened or variant spelling of 'ἀπέναντι' or 'ἀπέναντιον' due to the lack of diacritics and potential scribal variations in ancient manuscripts.

Inflection: Does not inflect (as an adverb); functions as a preposition governing the genitive case.
