From the root: ΕΠΙ
Part of Speech: Preposition
Explanation: This word is the preposition 'epi' (ἐπί) combined with the dative plural definite article 'tais' (ταῖς). The preposition 'epi' is highly versatile and its meaning depends heavily on the case of the noun it governs. When used with the dative case, as it is here, it typically indicates position 'on', 'upon', 'at', or 'by', or a state of being 'in' or 'among'. It can also denote the basis or ground for something, or a purpose. The definite article 'tais' refers to feminine plural nouns, meaning 'the' (feminine plural dative). Therefore, 'epitais' means 'on the (feminine plural)', 'upon the (feminine plural)', 'at the (feminine plural)', and so on, depending on the context.
