ERYSTHĒME, erysthēme
Sounds Like: eh-roo-THEH-meh
Translations: to be red, to blush, to be ashamed
From the root: ΕΡΥΘΡΑΙΝΩ
Part of Speech: Verb
Explanation: This word is an inflected form of the verb 'erythraino', meaning 'to make red' or 'to redden'. In its passive voice, it means 'to be made red' or 'to become red'. It can also metaphorically mean 'to blush' or 'to be ashamed', as blushing is a physical manifestation of shame or embarrassment. This specific form, 'erytheme', is likely a misspelling or a less common variant of 'erythēnai' (ἐρυθῆναι), which is the aorist infinitive passive of 'erythraino'. If it were 'erythēmen' (ἐρυθῆμεν), it would be the first person plural aorist passive indicative, meaning 'we were made red' or 'we blushed'. Given the spelling, it's most likely a variant or a scribal error for a form related to blushing or becoming red.
Inflection: Possibly Aorist Passive Infinitive or a variant of a First Person Plural Aorist Passive Indicative. The exact inflection is uncertain due to the unusual ending, but it points to a passive voice in the aorist tense.
