ΔΑΝΟΣ, δανος
DANOS, danos
Sounds Like: DAH-nos
Translations: Danus, a gift, a loan
From the root: ΔΑΝΟΣ
Part of Speech: Proper Noun, Noun
Explanation: This word can refer to 'Danus', a proper name, as seen in the first example where it appears to be part of a personal name 'ἸΩΔΑΝΟΣ' (Jodanus). In other contexts, it might mean 'a gift' or 'a loan', though this usage is less common in standard Koine Greek texts. The second example suggests a meaning related to something found or provided, possibly a 'loan' or 'gift'. The third example uses 'ΔΑΡΔΑΝΟΣ' (Dardanos), which is a different proper noun, but 'ΔΑΝΟΣ' itself is not directly attested in standard Koine lexicons with a common meaning.
