ΑΥ̓ΤΟΝΥΠΟ, αὐτονυπο
AUTONYPO, autonypo
Sounds Like: OW-toh-NEE-poh
Translations: by himself under, by himself from under, by himself from below
From the root: ΑΥ̓ΤΟΣ, ΥΠΟ
Part of Speech: Adverb, Preposition
Explanation: This word appears to be a compound of the pronoun/adjective 'αὐτός' (autos, self/same) and the preposition 'ὑπό' (hypo, under/by). It is not a standard standalone word in Koine Greek and is likely a unique formation or a misspelling. If it were a valid compound, it would mean something like 'by himself under' or 'from under himself', indicating an action performed by someone on themselves or originating from beneath themselves. Given the example usage, it seems to function adverbially, describing the manner in which an action is performed.
