ΔΕΣΥΜΜΑΧΟΥΣ, δεσυμμαχους
DESYMMACHOUS, desymmachous
Sounds Like: soo-MNA-khoos
Translations: allies, the allies
From the root: ΣΥΜΜΑΧΟΣ
Part of Speech: Noun
Explanation: This word appears to be a misspelling or a concatenation of two separate Koine Greek words: the conjunction "δὲ" (de), meaning "but, and, moreover," and the noun "συμμάχους" (symmachous), which is the accusative plural of "σύμμαχος" (symmachos), meaning "ally" or "fellow-combatant." If treated as a single word, it would refer to "allies" in the accusative case, often indicating the direct object of a verb. However, it is highly probable that "δὲ" should be a separate word.
Inflection: Plural, Accusative, Masculine
