Sounds Like: SOOL-lah

Translations: to take, to seize, to catch, to help, to assist, to conceive

From the root: ΣΥΛΛΑΜΒΑΝΩ

Part of Speech: Verb

Explanation: This word is an inflected form of the verb ΣΥΛΛΑΜΒΑΝΩ (syllambanō), meaning 'to take together,' 'to seize,' 'to catch,' 'to help,' or 'to conceive.' It is a compound word formed from the preposition ΣΥΝ (syn), meaning 'with' or 'together,' and the verb ΛΑΜΒΑΝΩ (lambanō), meaning 'to take' or 'to receive.' The specific form 'ΣΥΛΛΑ' appears to be a truncated or possibly a misspelling of an inflected form of ΣΥΛΛΑΜΒΑΝΩ, such as the aorist active imperative second person singular 'σύλλαβε' (syllabe) or a similar form. Given the context, it likely refers to 'to take' or 'to catch'.

Inflection: Likely an inflected form of ΣΥΛΛΑΜΒΑΝΩ, possibly a truncated or misspelled form of an Aorist Active Imperative, 2nd Person Singular, or similar. It is not a standard standalone form.
