ΔΙΕΦΥΓΟΝΟΣΟΥΣ, διεφυγονοσους
DIEPHYGONOSOUS, diephygonosous
Sounds Like: dee-EH-fy-gon-OH-soos
Translations: they escaped as many as, they escaped how many
From the root: ΔΙΑΦΕΥΓΩ, ΟΣΟΣ
Part of Speech: Verb, Adjective
Explanation: This word appears to be a compound or a combination of two separate words: the aorist active indicative third person plural of the verb 'διαφεύγω' (diefygo), meaning 'they escaped', and the masculine accusative plural of the adjective 'ὅσος' (hosos), meaning 'as many as' or 'how many'. The combination would mean 'they escaped as many as' or 'they escaped how many'. It is highly probable that this is a transcription error or a textual corruption where two words have been run together without a space.
Inflection: Verb: Aorist, Active, Indicative, Third Person Plural; Adjective: Masculine, Accusative, Plural
