ΗΠΕΡΗΝ, ηπερην
ĒPERĒN, ēperēn
Sounds Like: HY-per
Translations: over, above, beyond, for, on behalf of, instead of, more than, exceedingly
From the root: ΥΠΕΡ
Part of Speech: Preposition, Adverb
Explanation: This word is an inflected form of the preposition and adverb 'ὑπέρ' (hyper). As a preposition, it can take the genitive case to mean 'on behalf of' or 'for the sake of', or the accusative case to mean 'over', 'beyond', or 'more than'. As an adverb, it means 'exceedingly' or 'beyond measure'. The form 'ΗΠΕΡΗΝ' is likely a misspelling or a very rare, non-standard inflection, as the standard Koine Greek forms of 'ὑπέρ' do not typically end in -ηv. It might be a scribal error for 'ὑπέρ' itself or a related word.
Inflection: Unknown or Misspelled. If it were a standard form, it would likely be an accusative feminine singular, but 'ὑπέρ' does not inflect for gender or number in this way.
