ἈΡΑΒΑΣΟἸΕΣΘΕ, ἀραβασοἰεσθε
ARABASOIESTHE, arabasoiesthe
Sounds Like: ah-rah-BAH-soi-ES-theh
Translations: you will think of Arabs, you will consider Arabs, you will suppose Arabs
From the root: ΑΡΑΒΑΣ, ΟΙΟΜΑΙ
Part of Speech: Verb
Explanation: This word appears to be a compound or a highly unusual construction, likely a misspelling or a very rare form. It seems to combine a reference to 'Arabs' (ἈΡΑΒΑΣ, possibly an accusative plural of ἈΡΑΨ, 'Arab') with a form of the verb 'οἴομαι' (OIOMAI), meaning 'to think, suppose, imagine'. If interpreted as such, it would mean 'you will think of Arabs' or 'you will consider Arabs'. However, this specific combination is not standard Koine Greek and is highly irregular, suggesting it might be a garbled or misspelled form of something else, or a very unique literary construction. It is not a recognized word in standard lexicons.
Inflection: Second Person, Plural, Future, Middle/Passive, Indicative (if from οἴομαι)
Unknown: Yes
