Translations: and to persuade, and to convince, and to obey
From the root: ΚΑΙ, ΠΕΙΘΩ
Part of Speech: Conjunction, Verb
Explanation: This is a compound word formed from the conjunction 'καί' (kai), meaning 'and' or 'also', and the aorist active infinitive 'πεῖσαι' (peisai) from the verb 'πείθω' (peithō). The combined meaning is 'and to persuade' or 'and to convince'. Depending on the context, 'πείθω' can also mean 'to obey' (in the passive voice or middle voice), so 'καιπεῖσαι' could also mean 'and to obey' if the context implies a middle or passive sense of persuasion leading to obedience.
Inflection: Aorist, Active, Infinitive (from πείθω); Conjunction (καί)
