From the root: ΠΑΡΑ
Part of Speech: Prefix, Preposition
Explanation: This word is most likely a truncated or misspelled form of the Koine Greek preposition 'ΠΑΡΑ' (para). As a prefix in compound words, 'ΠΑΡΑ' can indicate proximity ('beside', 'alongside'), deviation ('beyond', 'contrary to'), or completion ('through'). As a standalone preposition, it can take different cases to convey various meanings: with the genitive, it means 'from' or 'from beside'; with the dative, it means 'with' or 'beside'; and with the accusative, it means 'alongside', 'by', 'beyond', or 'during'.
Inflection: Does not inflect (as a prefix or truncated form); the full word 'ΠΑΡΑ' inflects by taking different cases.
