Part of Speech: Verb
Explanation: This word is a form of a verb, but its precise meaning depends on the context, as it could be an inflection of two different verbs. It could be the second person singular aorist active indicative of the verb ΣΕΙΩ (seio), meaning 'to shake' or 'to cause to quake'. In this case, it would mean 'you shook' or 'you caused to quake'. Alternatively, it could be the second person singular aorist active imperative of the verb ΕΙΔΟΝ (eidon), meaning 'to see' or 'to perceive'. In this case, it would mean 'see!' or 'look!'. Given the provided examples, it seems more likely to be related to 'shaking' or 'seeing'.
Inflection: Second person singular, Aorist, Active, Indicative (from ΣΕΙΩ) OR Second person singular, Aorist, Active, Imperative (from ΕΙΔΟΝ)
