Explanation: This adjective describes something that is not liable to fall or stumble, implying stability, security, and steadfastness. It is a compound word formed from the alpha privative (Α-) meaning 'not' or 'without', the prefix 'ΠΡΟ-' (pro) meaning 'forward' or 'before', and 'ΠΤΩΤΟΣ' (ptotos) derived from the verb 'ΠΙΠΤΩ' (pipto) meaning 'to fall'. Thus, it literally means 'not falling forward'. It can be used to describe a person who remains firm in their faith or a structure that is secure and will not collapse.
