ΣΥΡΙΑΝΠΡΟΣ, συριανπρος
SYRIANPROS, syrianpros
Sounds Like: soo-ree-AHN-pros
Translations: Syria, to Syria, towards Syria, with Syria
From the root: ΣΥΡΙΑ, ΠΡΟΣ
Part of Speech: Proper Noun, Preposition
Explanation: This word appears to be a compound or, more likely, a concatenation of two separate words: 'ΣΥΡΙΑΝ' (Syria, in the accusative case) and 'ΠΡΟΣ' (a preposition meaning 'to', 'towards', 'with', or 'against'). When 'ΠΡΟΣ' is used with the accusative case, it typically indicates direction 'to' or 'towards' a place, or a relationship 'with' someone. Therefore, 'ΣΥΡΙΑΝ ΠΡΟΣ' would mean 'to Syria' or 'towards Syria'. It is not a standard single word in Koine Greek.
Inflection: ΣΥΡΙΑΝ: Singular, Accusative, Feminine; ΠΡΟΣ: Does not inflect (preposition)
