ἸΩΘ, ἰωθ
IŌTH, iōth
Sounds Like: ee-OH-th
Translations: I am accustomed, I am used to, I am in the habit of
From the root: ἘΘΩ
Part of Speech: Verb
Explanation: This word is an archaic perfect form of the verb 'ἔθω' (ethō), meaning 'to be accustomed' or 'to be in the habit of'. It is often used impersonally or with an infinitive to express what is customary or habitual. The form 'ἰῶθ' (iōth) is a rare, archaic perfect form, specifically the third person singular, which would typically be 'εἴωθε' (eiōthe) in more common Koine usage. The presence of the iota subscript (ἰ) suggests a potential scribal variation or a very specific dialectal or archaic usage, possibly indicating a contraction or a variant of the perfect stem. Given its rarity and the context of the provided examples, it is highly probable that 'ἸΩΘ' is a variant or a less common perfect form of 'ἔθω', or potentially a misspelling of 'εἴωθε'.
Inflection: Perfect, Indicative, Active, Third Person Singular (archaic/rare form)
