Sounds Like: roh-PEE-tays
Translations: inclination, turning, moment, weight, a moment, a turn
From the root: ΡΟΠΗ
Part of Speech: Noun
Explanation: This word, 'ΡΟΠΗΤΗΣ', appears to be a misspelling or a very rare, possibly unique, formation of the Greek word 'ῥοπή' (ropē). The word 'ῥοπή' generally refers to an inclination, a turning, or a moment in time, often implying a decisive turning point or a slight movement. It can also refer to weight or a 'moment' in the sense of a small unit of time or a critical juncture. Given the context, it's highly probable that 'ΡΟΠΗΤΗΣ' is a garbled or incomplete form of 'ῥοπή' or one of its inflections, such as 'ῥοπήν' (accusative singular).
Inflection: Singular, Nominative, Masculine (if it were a valid noun ending in -της), but likely a misspelling or incomplete form of 'ῥοπή' which is Feminine.
