From the root: ΑΠΟΣΚΟΡΑΚΙΖΩ
Part of Speech: Verb
Explanation: This word is a compound verb formed from the preposition ΑΠΟ (APO), meaning 'from' or 'away from,' and the verb ΣΚΟΡΑΚΙΖΩ (SKORAKIZO), which literally means 'to send to the ravens.' In ancient Greek culture, ravens were often associated with carrion and abandonment, so to 'send to the ravens' meant to utterly dismiss, reject, or banish someone or something, often with contempt. It implies a complete and final dismissal, as if abandoning something to its fate.
