ΚΕΦΑΛΗΝΦΕΡΩΡΑ, κεφαληνφερωρα
KEPHALĒNPHERŌRA, kephalēnpherōra
Sounds Like: keh-fah-LEEN-feh-ROH-rah
Translations: head, a head, to carry, to bear, to bring
From the root: ΚΕΦΑΛΗ, ΦΕΡΩ
Part of Speech: Noun, Verb
Explanation: This appears to be a compound word or a phrase, likely a misspelling or a garbled combination of 'ΚΕΦΑΛΗΝ' (kephalēn), meaning 'head' (in the accusative case), and 'ΦΕΡΩ' (pherō), meaning 'I carry' or 'I bring'. The ending 'ΡΑ' is not a standard part of either word in this context and suggests a possible transcription error or a very unusual formation. If it were a single word, it would mean something like 'head-carrying' or 'one who carries a head'. Given the context, it likely refers to the act of carrying a head.
Inflection: ΚΕΦΑΛΗΝ: Singular, Accusative, Feminine. ΦΕΡΩ: First Person, Singular, Present, Indicative, Active.
