ἘΚΕΙΚΑΙ, ἐκεικαι
EKEIKAI, ekeikai
Sounds Like: eh-KEH-ee-kahee
Translations: there, in that place, to that place
From the root: ἘΚΕΙ
Part of Speech: Adverb
Explanation: This word is likely a misspelling or a very rare variant of the Koine Greek adverb 'ἘΚΕΙ' (ekei), which means 'there' or 'in that place'. It is used to indicate location or direction to a place. If it were 'ἘΚΕΙ', it would not inflect. The 'ΚΑΙ' ending is highly unusual and does not correspond to standard Koine Greek inflectional patterns for adverbs or demonstrative pronouns like 'ἘΚΕΙΝΟΣ'. It is possible it's a compound of 'ἘΚΕΙ' and 'ΚΑΙ' (and), meaning 'and there', but written as one word, which is also uncommon.
Inflection: Does not inflect (if it is 'ἘΚΕΙ')
