DEOSDE, deosde
Sounds Like: DEH-os-DEH
Translations: fear, awe, reverence, but, and, moreover
From the root: ΔΕΟΣ, ΔΕ
Part of Speech: Noun, Particle
Explanation: This appears to be a compound word or a phrase combining the noun 'ΔΕΟΣ' (fear, awe, reverence) with the postpositive particle 'ΔΕ' (but, and, moreover). The particle 'ΔΕ' is typically placed after the word it modifies or connects, so 'ΔΕΟΣΔΕ' would literally mean something like 'fear, moreover' or 'but fear'. It's possible this is a specific idiomatic usage or a less common construction. It could also potentially be a scribal error or a very rare form not commonly attested, as the combination is unusual.
Inflection: ΔΕΟΣ: Singular, Neuter, Nominative or Accusative; ΔΕ: Does not inflect
