ΜΕΝἈΠΕΚΤΕΙΝΕΝ, μενἀπεκτεινεν

MENAPEKTEINEN, menapekteinen

Sounds Like: men-ap-EK-tei-nen

Translations: he killed, she killed, it killed, he did kill, she did kill, it did kill

From the root: ἈΠΟΚΤΕΙΝΩ

Part of Speech: Verb

Explanation: This is a compound word formed from the particle 'μὲν' (men) and the verb 'ἀποκτείνω' (apokteinō). The particle 'μὲν' is a postpositive particle that often emphasizes the preceding word or introduces a clause that contrasts with a following clause (often marked by 'δὲ'). The verb 'ἀποκτείνω' means 'to kill' or 'to slay'. Therefore, the combined word means 'he/she/it killed' or 'he/she/it did kill', with an added emphasis or contrast implied by 'μὲν'. It describes an action of killing that has already occurred.
