YMŌNĒRXANTO, ymōnērxanto
Sounds Like: hoo-MOHN-air-XAHN-toh
Translations: of you, your, they began, they started, they ruled
From the root: ΥΜΩΝ, ΑΡΧΩ
Part of Speech: Pronoun, Verb
Explanation: This appears to be a compound of two Koine Greek words: 'ΥΜΩΝ (hymōn)' and 'ἨΡΞΑΝΤΟ (ērxanto)'. 'ΥΜΩΝ' is the genitive plural of the second-person pronoun, meaning 'of you' or 'your' (plural). 'ἨΡΞΑΝΤΟ' is the aorist indicative middle/passive third-person plural of the verb 'ΑΡΧΩ (archō)', meaning 'to begin' or 'to rule'. Therefore, the combined form could mean 'they began of you' or 'they began your', or 'they ruled of you' or 'they ruled your', depending on context. It's possible this is a scribal error or a very unusual construction, as directly combining these two words without a clear grammatical link is uncommon.
