From the root: ΚΑΤΑ

Part of Speech: Preposition

Explanation: This word is an elided form of the preposition ΚΑΤΑ (kata), which occurs when it precedes a word beginning with a vowel. It is a versatile preposition used to express a wide range of relationships, including direction (down, against), distribution (throughout, each), standard (according to), and time (during). Its precise meaning often depends on the case of the noun it governs (genitive or accusative) and the context of the sentence.

Inflection: Does not inflect (preposition), but is an elided form of ΚΑΤΑ.
