Translations: who, which, what, his, her, its, their, 70
From the root: ΟΣ
Part of Speech: Relative Pronoun, Possessive Pronoun, Numeral
Explanation: This word, ΟΣʼ, can have multiple meanings in Koine Greek due to the lack of diacritics in the input and the presence of the apostrophe. Most commonly, it represents the relative pronoun ὅς (hos), meaning 'who,' 'which,' or 'what,' used to introduce a relative clause. It can also represent the possessive pronoun ὅς (hos), meaning 'his,' 'her,' 'its,' or 'their.' The apostrophe (keraia) at the end indicates that it could also be the Greek numeral for 70. It is less likely to be an elision (coronis) in this form, as there isn't a common elided word that would result in ΟΣ'.
Inflection: Singular, Nominative, Masculine (for relative/possessive pronoun); Does not inflect (for numeral)
