ΟΙΚΑΙ, οικαι
OIKAI, oikai
Sounds Like: OY-kye
Translations: houses, households, families, a house, a household, a family
From the root: ΟΙΚΟΣ
Part of Speech: Noun
Explanation: This word refers to houses, households, or families. It is the plural form of the noun 'οἶκος' (oikos), which means 'house'. It can be used to refer to physical dwellings, but also to the people living within a dwelling, or a lineage/family unit. In the provided examples, it appears to be used in a context related to people or groups, possibly as part of a compound or a miswritten word, as 'ΟΙΚΑΙ' itself is not a standard inflection of 'οἶκος'. It is most likely a misspelling or a garbled form of 'οἶκοι' (nominative/vocative plural of 'οἶκος') or 'οἴκῳ' (dative singular of 'οἶκος'), or part of a larger word.
Inflection: Plural, Nominative or Vocative (likely a misspelling of ΟΙΚΟΙ), or possibly a part of a compound word.
