Part of Speech: Noun
Explanation: This word is a diminutive form of the Greek word 'σῶμα' (soma), meaning 'body'. It literally translates to 'little body' or 'small body'. While it can emphasize smallness, sometimes diminutives in Koine Greek are used without a strong diminutive sense, simply referring to a 'body' in a general or affectionate way. It would be used in a sentence similarly to how 'body' is used in English.
