ΤἈΝΔΡΟΣΠΟΙΗΣΑΣΘΑΙ, τἀνδροσποιησασθαι

TANDROSPOIĒSASTHAI, tandrospoiēsasthai

Sounds Like: tan-DROS-poy-AY-sas-thai

Translations: to make men, to make into men, to make manly, to make courageous

From the root: ΑΝΗΡ, ΠΟΙΕΩ

Part of Speech: Verb

Explanation: This is a highly unusual and likely non-standard or misspelled compound verb in Koine Greek. It appears to be formed from the accusative feminine singular article 'τὴν' (tēn), the genitive singular of 'ἀνήρ' (anēr, meaning 'man'), and a form of the verb 'ποιέω' (poieō, meaning 'to make' or 'to do'). The combination 'τὴν ἀνδρός' (tēn andros) literally means 'the man's' (feminine article with genitive masculine noun), which is grammatically problematic in this context. The verb 'ποιέω' is in the aorist middle infinitive form, 'ποιήσασθαι' (poiēsasthai), meaning 'to make for oneself' or 'to cause to be made'. Therefore, the word seems to be an attempt to convey the idea of 'making men' or 'making manly/courageous', perhaps in a reflexive or causative sense. Given its unusual structure, it is very likely a misspelling or a unique, non-standard formation.
