Sounds Like: ER-gah
Translations: works, deeds, actions, a work, a deed, an action
From the root: ΕΡΓΟΝ
Part of Speech: Noun
Explanation: This word refers to a work, deed, or action. It is the plural form of the noun 'ἔργον' (ergon). It describes something done or performed, whether good or bad, and can encompass a wide range of activities or accomplishments. The apostrophe at the end is a keraia, indicating that the word is being used as a numeral, specifically 5 + 100 + 3 + 1 = 109. However, it is much more likely to be a coronis, indicating an elision, or simply a scribal mark. Given the context of ancient manuscripts without diacritics, it is most commonly interpreted as the plural form of 'ἔργον', meaning 'works' or 'deeds'.
