Translations: and having been shut, and having been closed, and having been silent, and having been dumb
From the root: ΜΥΚΑΟΜΑΙ, ΚΑΙ
Part of Speech: Conjunction, Verb
Explanation: This is a compound word formed from the conjunction "καί" (kai) meaning "and," and the perfect active participle of the verb "μυκάομαι" (mykaomai). The verb "μυκάομαι" primarily means "to moo, to bellow" (like cattle), but in a figurative sense, it can mean "to be silent, to be dumb, to be closed up" (like a mouth or a wound). Therefore, "καιμεμυκότες" means "and having been silent" or "and having been closed/shut." It describes a state of being closed or silenced, often referring to mouths or wounds.
