CHARMEISʼ, charmeisʼ

Sounds Like: khar-MEIS

Translations: (to) joys, (to) delights

From the root: ΧΑΡΜΑ

Part of Speech: Noun

Explanation: This word is likely an elided form of the dative plural of the noun ΧΑΡΜΑ (charma), meaning 'joy' or 'delight'. The apostrophe at the end, known as a coronis, indicates that the final nu (ν) has been dropped, typically before a word beginning with a vowel. It refers to multiple instances of joy or delight, and its dative case indicates it is the indirect object of an action, often translated with 'to' or 'for'.
