Translations: Ptolemy becomes, Ptolemy happens, Ptolemy is born
From the root: ΓΙΝΟΜΑΙ, ΠΤΟΛΕΜΑΙΟΣ
Part of Speech: Verb, Proper Noun
Explanation: This appears to be a compound word or, more likely, a transcription error where two separate words, 'γίνεται' (ginetai) and 'Πτολεμαῖος' (Ptolemaios), have been merged. 'Γίνεται' is the third person singular present indicative form of the verb 'γίνομαι', meaning 'to become', 'to happen', or 'to be born'. 'Πτολεμαῖος' is a proper noun, referring to 'Ptolemy'. Therefore, the combined phrase would mean 'Ptolemy becomes' or 'Ptolemy happens/is born'. It describes an action or state related to the person named Ptolemy.
