Part of Speech: Adverb
Explanation: This word is an adverbial form derived from the noun ΠΛΗΓΗ (plēgē), meaning 'a blow' or 'a stroke'. The final apostrophe indicates an elision of the epsilon (ε) at the end, so the full form would be ΠΛΗΓΗΔΕ. It describes the manner in which an action is performed, specifically 'by means of a blow' or 'as if by striking'. It is used to indicate that something happens with the force or effect of a blow.
