Translations: before, in front of, in the presence of, for, on behalf of, toward, with, against, at, by, to, a

From the root: ΠΡΟ

Part of Speech: Preposition, Adverb

Explanation: This word is a common Koine Greek preposition and adverb. As a preposition, it can indicate spatial relationships (before, in front of), temporal relationships (before a certain time), or a relationship of purpose or benefit (for, on behalf of). It can also denote direction (toward, against) or association (with). The question mark at the end of 'ΠΡ?' suggests an abbreviation or a corrupted form of 'ΠΡΟ' (pro) or 'ΠΡΟΣ' (pros). Given the context of the example usage, 'ΠΡΟΣ' (pros) meaning 'toward' or 'against' is a strong possibility, as is 'ΠΡΟ' (pro) meaning 'before' or 'for'. The example 'ΠΡ? ΡΙΝ' strongly suggests 'ΠΡΟΣΦΕΡΕΙΝ' (prospherein) meaning 'to offer' or 'to bring to', where 'ΠΡ?' is an abbreviation for 'ΠΡΟΣ'.

Inflection: Does not inflect (as a preposition/adverb). When used as a preposition, it typically takes the genitive or accusative case, with different meanings depending on the case.
