Sounds Like: EH-teh-ran-ka-toh-lis-THAI-noo-sin
Translations: another, a different one, they slip down, they slide down, they fall into
From the root: ΕΤΕΡΟΣ, ΚΑΤΟΛΙΣΘΑΙΝΩ
Part of Speech: Adjective, Verb
Explanation: This appears to be a compound word or a phrase written as a single word, combining the accusative feminine singular form of the adjective 'ἕτερος' (heteros), meaning 'another' or 'different', with the third person plural present active indicative form of the verb 'κατολισθαίνω' (katolisthainō), meaning 'to slip down' or 'to slide down'. The combined meaning would be something like 'they slip down into another' or 'they slide into a different one'. This construction suggests that the two words were intended to be read together, possibly indicating a specific direction or outcome of slipping.
Inflection: ΕΤΕΡΑΝ: Singular, Accusative, Feminine. ΚΑΤΟΛΙΣΘΑΙΝΟΥΣΙΝ: Third Person, Plural, Present, Active, Indicative.
