From the root: ΑΥ̓ΤΟΚΡΑΤΩΡ
Part of Speech: Noun
Explanation: This word is the genitive plural form of 'ΑΥ̓ΤΟΚΡΑΤΩΡ' (autokratōr), meaning 'emperor' or 'supreme ruler'. It is a compound word formed from 'αὐτός' (autos), meaning 'self', and 'κράτος' (kratos), meaning 'power' or 'rule'. Thus, it literally means 'one who rules by himself' or 'one with absolute power'. In ancient contexts, it referred to a sovereign ruler, often an emperor or a supreme commander. The genitive plural form indicates possession or origin, so it would be used in phrases like 'the decrees of the emperors' or 'the power of the rulers'.
