ΟΙΚΟΥΜΕΝ, οικουμεν

OIKOUMEN, oikoumen

Sounds Like: oy-koo-MEN

Translations: inhabited, dwelling, inhabited world, the world, the earth

From the root: ΟΙΚΕΩ

Part of Speech: Participle

Explanation: This word is a form of the perfect passive participle of the verb 'οἰκέω' (oikeō), meaning 'to inhabit' or 'to dwell'. In its full form, 'οἰκουμένη' (oikoumenē), it refers to the 'inhabited earth' or 'the world' as a place where people dwell. It describes something that is inhabited or populated. The form 'ΟΙΚΟΥΜΕΝ' is likely a truncated or uninflected form, or a specific case/gender/number that has lost its ending in the normalization process, most commonly referring to the feminine singular nominative/accusative/vocative 'οἰκουμένη' or neuter singular nominative/accusative/vocative 'οἰκούμενον'.

Inflection: Perfect Passive Participle, likely Nominative/Accusative/Vocative, Singular, Feminine or Neuter (from οἰκουμένη or οἰκούμενον)

Strong’s number: G3625 (Lookup on BibleHub)
