Part of Speech: Verb
Explanation: This is a compound verb formed from the preposition ΠΑΡΑ (PARA), meaning 'beside, by, amiss', and the verb ΑΚΟΥΩ (AKOUO), meaning 'to hear'. Therefore, it literally means 'to hear beside' or 'to hear amiss'. In practice, it signifies a failure to properly hear or heed, leading to disobedience or disregard.
