Translations: you may obey, you may listen, you may hearken, you may submit

From the root: ΥΠΑΚΟΥΩ

Part of Speech: Verb

Explanation: This word means to obey, to listen to, or to hearken. It is a compound word formed from the preposition ΥΠΟ (HYPO), meaning 'under' or 'subordinate to', and the verb ΑΚΟΥΩ (AKOUO), meaning 'to hear'. Thus, it literally means 'to hear under' or 'to listen attentively with submission'. It is used to describe the act of giving heed to a command or instruction, often implying submission or compliance.
