GARTŌ, gartō
Sounds Like: gar-TOH
Translations: for the, because the
From the root: ΓΑΡ, Ο
Part of Speech: Conjunction, Article
Explanation: This is a compound word formed by the conjunction 'γάρ' (gar), meaning 'for' or 'because', and the dative singular masculine or neuter definite article 'τῷ' (tō), meaning 'the'. It is not a standard Koine Greek word and appears to be a misspelling or a very rare, non-standard contraction. In standard Koine Greek, 'γάρ' and 'τῷ' would typically appear as separate words. The example usage suggests it functions as 'for the' or 'because the'.
Inflection: Compound of 'γάρ' (does not inflect) and 'τῷ' (Dative, Singular, Masculine or Neuter)
