Sounds Like: MAS-tix
Translations: scourge, whip, plague, calamity, disease, torment
From the root: ΜΑΣΤΙΞ
Part of Speech: Noun
Explanation: This word refers to a whip or a scourge, an instrument used for punishment or torture. By extension, it can also refer to a severe affliction, a plague, a disease, or a calamity, implying a divinely sent punishment or a great suffering. The final character 'ʼ' is likely a keraia, which in ancient Greek manuscripts indicates a number. However, ΜΑΣΤΙΞ is not a standard Greek numeral, so it's more probable that the 'ʼ' is a scribal mark, a typo, or a misinterpretation of a diacritic, and the word itself is ΜΑΣΤΙΞ.
