Explanation: ΜΗΤΙΓΕ is a compound adverb formed from the negative particle μὴ (mē), the indefinite pronoun τι (ti), and the emphatic particle γε (ge). It is used to introduce a stronger, often contrasting, statement, meaning 'how much more' or 'how much less' depending on the context. It emphasizes the preceding statement by drawing a conclusion that is even more certain or extreme. For example, if one thing is true, then 'much less' or 'much more' is something else true.
