Explanation: This word is an inflected form of the relative pronoun ὅστις (hostis), meaning 'whoever', 'whatever', or 'whichever'. The apostrophe at the end indicates an elision, meaning the final vowel (alpha in this case) of the original word ἥντινα has been dropped, typically when followed by another word beginning with a vowel. It is used to introduce a relative clause, referring back to a preceding noun or pronoun.
